Apart from Mr Sunak, Mr Lee also met other leaders on the summit’s sidelines, such as European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, World Trade Organization director-general Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping did not attend the two-day event, with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Premier Li Qiang leading the two countries’ delegations respectively. The consensus declaration avoided condemnation of Russia for the war in Ukraine, but highlighted the human suffering the conflict had caused and called on all states not to use force to grab territory.Mr Lee said India had “a very difficult job” as this year’s G20 president and host, amid the uncertain international environment.
Mr Lee noted that the joint communique was comprehensive, covering “a lot of ground” for cooperation. The subjects raised ranged from artificial intelligence and reforms at global bodies such as the United Nations, to issues concerning the developing countries.
