The G20 leaders' statement, which was adopted during the summit held in Delhi on September 9, 2023, refrained from explicitly condemning Russia for its actions in Ukraine. However, the declaration did stress the importance of all nations adhering to the principles and objectives outlined in the UN Charter in relation to the conflict in Ukraine.

Furthermore, the declaration underscored the significance of maintaining food and energy security and urged for an end to any military destruction or attacks on critical infrastructure. In addition to these points, the G20 leaders jointly called upon both Russia and Ukraine to ensure the immediate and unhindered flow of essential resources, including grain, food supplies, and fertilizers/inputs, from both nations.

This approach, taken by the G20 leaders, reflects a balanced stance on the ongoing conflict without explicitly assigning blame to any particular party.
