00:30 In a major breakthrough, the New Delhi Leader Summit declaration was adopted on Saturday
00:36 after consensus was reached among member states during the G20 Summit.
00:42 "House has got the good news that due to the hard work of our teams and your cooperation,
00:47 a consensus has been reached on the New Delhi G20 Leader Summit declaration,"
00:52 PM Modi said while addressing the second session of the summit at the Bharat Mandapam in Delhi.
00:59 "It is my proposal that this G20 declaration be adopted," the Prime Minister said.

01:11 On this occasion, I would like to thank our ministers, shepherds and all the officials
01:16 who made this possible with their hard work," PM Modi added.
01:20 India's G20 presidency has been the most ambitious in the history of G20
01:26 with 112 outcomes and presidency documents.
01:30 "We have more than doubled the substantive work from the previous presidency," PM Modi said.
01:36 Consensus among the members have been difficult to achieve
01:40 as the member countries are divided over Russia's war in Ukraine.
01:45 So, what are the top points from the New Delhi Leader's declaration?
01:51 Concerning the war in Ukraine, while recalling the discussion in Bali,
01:56 the member states reiterated their national positions and resolution adopted
02:01 at the UN Security Council and the UN General Assembly
02:06 and underscored that all states must act in a manner consistent with the purposes
02:12 and principles of the UN Charter in its entirety.
02:16 In line with the UN Charter, all states must refrain from the threat or use of the force
02:22 to seek territorial acquisition against the territorial integrity and sovereignty
02:28 of political independence of any state.
02:31 The threat of use of nuclear weapons is inadmissible.
02:36 Reaffirming that the G20 is the premier forum of the International Economic Cooperation
02:43 and recognition that while the G20 is not the platform to resolve geopolitical and security issues,
02:50 the member states acknowledged that these issues can have significant consequences for the global economy.
02:58 The member nation called all the states to uphold the principles of international law,
03:04 including territorial integrity and sovereignty, international humanitarian law
03:10 and the multilateral system that safeguards peace and stability.
03:15 The peaceful resolution of conflicts and efforts to address crisis,
03:20 as well as diplomacy and dialogue is critical.
03:24 The member nations pledged to stay united in their endeavors to address the adverse impact of the war
03:30 on the global economy and welcome all relevant and constructive initiatives
03:36 that support a comprehensive, just and durable peace in Ukraine
03:41 that will uphold all the purpose and principles of the UN Charter.
03:46 Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman later acknowledged the achievement on social media,
03:56 thanking all G20 members for their cooperation and support.
04:01 The breakthrough came after the Indian side shared a new draft text
04:06 addressing the Ukraine crisis among G20 states to resolve the deadlock.
04:12 The privileged staff agreed upon the most G20 states had left the paragraph
04:17 regarding the geopolitical solution or the Ukraine crisis blank.
