“The era of today is not of war,” The G20 community now rests on the strong message delivered by Prime Minister Narendra Modi against the backdrop of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

This quote was made by PM Modi in a bilateral meet on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, urging the cessation of hostilities.

According to three people with knowledge of the negotiations, the Indian delegation was crucial in helping member states agree on the language criticising the Russian incursion. In September, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi told Russian President Vladimir Putin that “now is not the time for conflict,” and the significant role India played in obtaining agreement on the result document was unambiguously stated by Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra in his news conference in Bali.

The way that the world leaders responded to Modi’s call to handle problems via conversation and diplomacy as well as measures to deal with crises was evident.

After five days of deliberations, his suggestions that the Ukraine war issue is resolved through an inclusive paragraph in light of the stark differences have cleared the path for an agreed-upon phrase in the Declaration.

The prime minister resisted any limits on the supply of energy at the G20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia, by focusing on the “road of ceasefire and dialogue,” despite the president of the United States’ request to avoid buying Russian oil during his address.

The language and message from the G20 Summit in Indonesia have amplified India’s narrative in the international debate as a result of the war in Ukraine. A formal leaders’ proclamation has been released as a result of India’s influence over developing nations and growing markets.

After five days of deliberations, language was finally agreed upon in the Declaration thanks to India’s recommendation that the Ukraine issue must be resolved through an inclusive paragraph in light of the severe divides. India has completely maintained its position on Russia-Ukraine in the UN fora.

In order to implement the 2030 Agenda, multilateral reforms, global digital health networks, and finance and technology as crucial enablers are just a few of the topics India played a significant role in obtaining during the summit. Other topics included Sustainable development and lifestyles, a new quantified goal for climate finance post-2025, Multilateral reforms aimed at implementing the 2030 Agenda, and a new quantified goal for climate finance.
