India’s G20 Presidency was “challenging” as it came amid “a very sharp" East-West polarisation and “very deep” North-South divide, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has said.
The remarks by Jaishankar came at a special ‘India-UN for Global South: Delivering for Development’ side event he hosted here on Saturday on the margins of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly.
"We meet just a few weeks after the New Delhi G20 Summit, a summit which took place on the theme of ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’. Now, it was a challenging summit. It was actually a challenging presidency,” he said The event saw participation from dignitaries at the UN as well as Foreign Ministers from Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean and the Small Island States.
