The HinduThe next G20 summit presents a "great opportunity" for India to showcase many of its strengths and provide leadership to several challenges the world is facing, Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal has said. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said India will work to further promote oneness, inspired by the theme of “One Earth, One Family, One Future” and listed terrorism, climate change and the pandemic as the greatest challenges that can be best fought together. In an article that appeared in several newspapers and was posted on his website, Prime Minister Modi said India’s G20 priorities will be shaped in consultation with not just its G20 partners, but also its fellow travellers in the global South, whose voice often goes unheard. Terming India’s G20 Presidency a “very big deal”, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has said India intends to use its presidency for the benefit of the international community.
