Janet Yellen has defended the G20’s position on Ukraine, stating that the joint statement made at the recent summit in New Delhi used “substantively very strong” language. The compromise document has faced criticism for watering down condemnations of Russia’s actions in Ukraine compared to previous G20 summits. However, Yellen stated that the US does not see the language as weakening the G20’s stance. Yellen also highlighted the G20’s accomplishments in increasing funding for developing economies.
