G20 leaders pledge support for multilateralism, the Global South and an open economy.
Leaders of the world’s top economies have wrapped up a meeting in Brazil, where they committed to tackling poverty, inequality and climate change.
The wars in Ukraine and the Middle East were also high on the agenda, as were global trade and the world economy.
But the elephant in the room was Donald Trump.
The incoming United States president has pledged to reshape the US role in all of these areas.
