Fumio Kishida on Sunday stated that the New Declaration from the G20 Summit was significant as all G20 members including Russia have agreed on such terms as «all states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition.»
Addressing a press meet at the end of G2O Summit, Kishida said it was «significant» that all G20 members including Russia have agreed on such terms as «all states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition.»
However, he did not get into the specifics of the language of New Declaration whose formulation on Ukraine had a marked difference from the Bali formulation as it did not mention Russia by name.
On the safety of Japan's release of treated radioactive water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant Kishida said, «Many countries already viewed the process of discharge as safe and transparent. I feel now that such understanding has spread further.”
Meanwhile, PM Narendra Modi and Brazil President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva held a substantive dialogue here on Sunday and underscored the need for open, unimpeded and reliable food supply chains and called upon the international community to ensure that agricultural trade is not affected by unilateral restrictions and protectionist measures, duly taking into consideration the Multilateral trade rules.
The two leaders expressed satisfaction over the formation of Joint Technical Committees to facilitate trade in agriculture and animal husbandry products, officials said.
Modi and Lula agreed that economic exchanges between Brazil and India have the potential for further growth, taking advantage of the scale of their respective economies and the potential for forging industrial partnerships.
