The G20 releases declaration chock-full of the odious language we've all grown to despise
Indian official says '100% consensus' on the UN 2030 agenda, digital health and climate finance
As per The Guardian:
The G20 leaders have agreed a joint declaration, Narendra Modi announced on Saturday, alleviating fears that disagreements over the Russia-Ukraine war would prevent a consensus for the first time.
Speaking at an afternoon session of the G20 summit in Delhi, the Indian prime minister said he had “just got the good news that due to the hard work of our teams and your cooperation, a consensus has been reached on the New Delhi G20 leaders’ summit declaration”.
The Indian G20 representative comments:
Amitabh Kant, India’s G20 representative, said there was “100% consensus from all countries” on all 83 paragraphs in the declaration.
Let’s take a closer look at this document that has unanimous consent from all of the G20:
The UN 2030 agenda? Check. (‘Resilient’ and ‘sustainable’? Check. Good god.)
‘Digital health’? Check.
I’ll admit, I didn’t read all of that but I did register ‘climate finance’, ‘carbon neutrality’ and ‘net zero’. Check.
Read the rest if you wanna bore yourself.
