(Rio de Janeiro Comprehensive Television) The G20 Group (G20) Foreign Minister Meeting is about to be held in Brazil. The issues of this meeting include the international tensions such as the Harbin conflict and the Russian and Ukraine War.The prospects are dim, and it is expected that the G20 may not be issued in a joint statement.
The two -day G20 Foreign Minister Meeting was held on Wednesday (February 21) in Rio de Janeiro.U.S. Secretary of State Brills has arrived in Brazil. He and Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov may have a rare face -to -face interaction at the venue. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi confirmed that he would not attend.
The situation of international tensions will be a topic discussed on the first day of the meeting.A Senior diplomat at the G20 round of chairman, Brazil, told reporters on the eve of the meeting that world conflicts have returned to the Cold War level."We are just extinguishing the fire now. We must establish a new international system to avoid any conflict."
However, the diplomatic storm that Brazil has occurred with Israel a few days ago has a shadow on the meeting.Last Sunday (18th), when Brazilian President Lula attended the African Union Summit in Ethiopia, he compared Israel's military operations in Gasha as the Nazi Holocaust, causing strong dissatisfaction in Israel.
After this diplomatic storm, Ruoseina, an internationalist expert, believes that Lula wants to use the G20 Foreign Minister's meeting hosted by Brazil to persuade Israel to accept the expectations of Harbin conflict and peace solutions proposed by all parties."It is very difficult to reach a major agreement. This is not a favorable environment to resolve conflicts."
Due to huge differences in the existence, G20 member states are also not optimistic about the prospects of reaching consensus on the Russian and Ukrainian war.
The G20 summit held in India last September ended with a statement of diluted wording. The statement condemned the use of force, but did not name Russia.Russia has always maintained friendly relations with the current G20 chairman, Brazil, so it is difficult to make breakthroughs in this session.
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Wednesday that the Ukraine issue is not the core issue of G20, and the Ukrainian issue is damaged in the G20 meeting.
