At the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva announced a new global alliance aimed at eradicating poverty and hunger, supported by over 80 nations. The summit’s agenda, shaped by the shifting power dynamics following the election of US President Donald Trump, focused on trade, climate change, and the conflict in Ukraine. Lula emphasized the political roots of hunger and climate challenges while leaders faced difficulties in drafting a joint statement amid rising tensions over international conflicts. The summit also highlights pressures on G20 members to address stalled climate finance talks.
