Earlier today, PM Modi addressed the Session-I on ‘One Earth’ during the G20 Summit where he began by expressing condolences for the victims of the recent earthquake in Morocco.
He then invited the head of the African Union to take his seat as a member of the G20. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar accompanied the President of the Union of Comoros and Chairperson of the African Union (AU), Azali Assoumani as he took his seat among world leaders.
“With everyone’s approval, I request the African Union Chairperson to take his seat as a permanent G20 member,” PM Modi said.
In his remarks at the first session of the G20 Summit, PM Modi said, “The 21st century is a time that has the potential to give a new direction to the entire world. It’s a time when years-old challenges demand new solutions from us. Therefore, we must move forward by fulfilling all our responsibilities with a human-centric approach.”
“Noting that India’s G20 Presidency has become a symbol of inclusion both inside and outside the country, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday that it has become “People’s G20” in India and crores of citizens are connected with it.
In his opening statement, he said, “India’s G20 presidency has become a symbol of inclusion, of ‘sabka saath’ both inside and outside the country. This has become the People’s G20 in India. Crores of Indians are connected to this. In more than 60 cities of the country, more than 200 meetings have taken place. With the sense of ‘Sabka Saath’, India had proposed that the African Union be granted permanent membership of G20. I believe that all of us agree to this proposal.”
PM Modi noted that the world has faced a new challenge of trust deficit after COVID-19. He referred to the conflict between Ukraine and Russia and said the war had deepened the trust deficit further. (ANI)
