Most G20 members "strongly condemn the war in Ukraine" and underline that it is causing "immense human suffering and exacerbating existing fragilities in the global economy".

This is what we read in the draft of the final communiqué of the summit of representatives of the 20 most industrialized countries on earth underway in Bali .

And the conflict between Moscow and Kiev was one of the central themes of the summit, opened by Indonesian president Widodo, who warned against a new cold war.

In Indonesia, Giorgia Meloni's first release among the Greats of the Earth. In her speech, the Italian prime minister highlighted the "devastating impact" of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and urged the G20 to confront "the most difficult challenges". Meloni also placed the emphasis on the issue of energy supplies.

Paradoxically, the opportunity to make the world more sustainable and build a more balanced market can also emerge from the drama of the energy crisis, in which speculators have less influence and supplying countries have fewer opportunities to use energy as a weapon against other countries», said the prime minister, the only female leader among the 20 big names present in Bali.

In the bilaterals between the leaders , Chinese President Xi Jinping saw his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron, assuring that Beijing "wants a ceasefire, but that the conditions must be created to stop the war".

Words and atmosphere of relaxation also in the face-to-face between Xi and US number one Joe Biden .

The Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky also spoke at the G20. "If Russia does not implement concrete actions to achieve peace, it means that it wants to deceive the world and freeze the war", said the leader of Kiev, reiterating that Ukraine must be offered the possibility of a "just peace, without compromised for his sovereignty".
