The majority of the international media have praised India and spoken of its growing influence as the voice of the Global South as the G20 Summit successfully concluded with unanimous support for the New Delhi Declaration. The Washington Post praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for addressing international issues and achieving complete agreement on all geopolitical and developmental matters. “India forges compromise among divided world powers at the G20 summit in a diplomatic win for Modi,” was the headline of the post.
Dubai based media organisation, Gulf News emphasized on the aspect of how the 18th G20 Summit shaped the world in harmony and diversity and shared their story with the headline, “18th G20 Summit: Shaping a world of diversity and harmony.”
Australian news outlet ABC news however saw the Delhi declaration as being watered down in its language on the conflict in Ukraine. ABC news wrote “Anthony Albanese hails watered down agreement as G20 summit wraps.”
Albanese on Saturday termed the G20 Summit hosted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as “successful” and also stated that the New Delhi Summit was followed by a good bilateral discussion between the two leaders.
