JAKARTA - British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak deeply regrets that Russian President Vladimir Putin will not be able to attend the Summit (G20) in Bali on November 15-16, 2022. In fact, according to Rishi, he is the one who must be responsible for the current crisis.
The man in charge of so much bloodshed in Ukraine and economic disputes around the world will not be present to confront his colleagues. He won't even try to explain his actions. On the other hand, he will stay at home and we will all continue the existing tasks," Sunak said as quoted by Gov.uk, Monday (14/11).
While the whole world was trying to recover from the pandemic that devastated the economies of each country, Russia actually exacerbated it by invading Ukraine. Putin, said Rishi, hampered the export of Ukrainian grains, which two-thirds entered developing countries, resulting in global food prices soaring. Russia also turned off gas taps to make energy bills skyrocket.
As a result, two-thirds of G20 members are now experiencing inflation rates above seven percent and the IMF predicts a third of the world economy will experience a recession next year.
Currently, the Ukrainian people are still suffering greatly from Russia's continuing attacks and prolonged power outages in nearly freezing temperatures.
Russia is trying to strangling the global economy. We must unite to stop them and restore economic stability," said Rishi Sunak.
I know that people are struggling. Across the UK, families are feeling pressure. Weekly shops cost more than ever, and people are anxious about the next bill that will land on their generators. So we will continue to provide assistance domestically, but we also need to look at the coordinated global action we saw in response to the 2008 financial crisis," Sunak said.
In the G20 Summit, still from Gov.uk, Rishi Sunak will call for coordinated global action to overcome international economic instability and rising cost of living. Sunak will say five things:
Rishi Sunak will use the G20 as an opportunity to summon Putin's barbarism and force Russia to face global suffering caused by this unreasonable campaign of violence.
The best and fastest way to solve this problem is to withdraw Putin from Ukraine. But while this war continues, the world's most powerful economy has an important role in tackling a desperate global economic situation," he said.
"We will not allow our future economy to be held hostage by rogue state actions, our allies neither. Instead, we will support Ukraine and we will work to meet every element of the five-point plan, promote a stronger, more stable, and more resilient global market and economy, and that generate faster growth returns," Sunak explained.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak arrived in Bali, Monday (14/11) at around 18.45 WITA to attend the G20 Summit. Without his wife, Sunak, who appeared to be wearing a black suit, was then greeted by a typical Balinese dance, namely the Pendet Dance.
This is the first time Rishi Sunak has come to Indonesia after being elected Prime Minister of England to replace Liz Truss.
