G20 leaders end meeting condemning Ukraine war

(UPDATED) NUSA DUA, Indonesia: Members of the Group of 20 (G20) leading economies ended their meeting on Wednesday by declaring that most of them strongly condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine and warning that the conflict is intensifying fragilities in the world's economy.

The summit's closing declaration was noteworthy in highlighting the war, given the divisions among the group, which includes not only Russia itself but also countries such as China and India that have significant trade ties with Moscow and have stopped short of outright criticism of the war.
