The meeting of the heads of diplomacy of the world’s 20 largest economies began this Wednesday with Brazil’s call for peace and cooperation, as well as the role that the G20 should play in “reducing international tensions.”
“In our view, the G20 can and must play a fundamental role in reducing international tensions, as well as promoting the sustainable development agenda,” Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira said in his opening speech at the meeting in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. .
The head of Brazilian diplomacy, the country that took over the presidency of the G20 on December 1, 2023, said that “it is unacceptable for the world to exceed the $2 billion mark in military spending while aid and development programs raise only 60 billion dollars, equivalent to less than 3% of defense spending.”
