New Delhi. The Prime Minister’s message ‘Today’s era is not of war’ at the G-20 summit being held in Bali, Indonesia has had an impact. Stamping this statement of PM Modi, the G-20 has included it in its draft. Condemning Russia for the invasion of Ukraine in this draft, the G-20 will now use this message of PM Modi. On the other hand, this call of G-20 has based on Prime Minister Modi’s call that ‘the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons is unacceptable.
As far as the draft of the G-20 is concerned, efforts are being made to settle the issue of Ukraine and Russia before the commencement of India’s chairmanship. It is only because of India’s leadership of developing countries and emerging markets that a full declaration has come out. A consensus could be formed only because of India. And India’s suggestion that the Ukraine issue is settled through an inclusive paragraph, given the deep divisions, has led to language agreed upon in the declaration after five days of discussion. Significantly, India has always kept its position completely balanced on the Russia-Ukraine war at the United Nations forums.
Along with this, it has been said in the draft that this year we have seen an adverse effect on the global economy due to the war in Ukraine. Many countries have reiterated the position of the G-20 and most of the members have strongly condemned this war. It further states that the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons is unacceptable. Peaceful resolution of conflicts, efforts to resolve crises, diplomacy, and dialogue are important in today’s era. Emphasizing peace, it has been said that today’s era is not of war.
It may be known that the statement ‘Today’s era is not of war’ was given for the first time by PM Modi on the occasion of the summit in Uzbekistan. At that time, PM Modi had a face-to-face meeting with Russian President Putin. In a meeting with Putin on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) conference, the PM said I know that today’s era is not of war and I have talked to you about this on the phone as well.
