Summary
At the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazilian President Lula champions a Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty, as wars in Ukraine and the Middle East overshadow discussions. Despite global tension and political challenges, leaders focus on hunger, climate change, and economic solidarity. A significant U.S. pledge of $4 billion aims to aid the world's poorest.
