The Group of 20 top economies in the world welcomed the African Union as a new member in a joint statement at their annual meeting this Saturday. This group was also asked about Russia's war in Ukraine, without condemning Russia, only to avoid occupying the territory of other countries by resorting to force and to limit the use of nuclear weapons.

On the first day of the G20 summit in New Delhi, the Prime Minister of India announced that according to the agreement of all members, the African Union has officially become a member of this group.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday that leaders of the G20 summit he is chairing this weekend must support developing nations to tackle climate change with more cash and by sharing technology.

India has increased the necessary security measures on the eve of the G20 meeting.
