At G-20, Biden announces ambitious corridor connecting India, Europe

President Biden doing what an American president is expected to do on the world stage.

NEW DELHI — President Biden and several other world leaders announced plans here Saturday afternoon for a new rail and shipping corridor that would connect India and Europe through the Middle East, an ambitious proposal aimed at further connecting a volatile region and countering China’s years-long backing of massive infrastructure projects around the world.

The announcement solidified a preliminary agreement among a range of participants — including the United States, India, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel, the United Arab Emirates and the European Union — and came as leaders of the world’s largest economies tried to work through divisions on a range of thorny issues.

By midafternoon, the leaders here had reached consensus on a 37-page joint declaration on 83 points, several of which referred to Russia’s war in Ukraine. The debate over the war led some to predict that such a statement would prove elusive, particularly given that Russia is a member of the G-20. But they arrived at language that stated that “all states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition,” and also stated that “the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons is inadmissible.”

Officials in the countries involved are expected within 60 days to come up with a timeline for the projects — linking energy grids, laying undersea and overland cables, and providing more digital connections. Some of the tasks involve installing hydrogen pipelines from Israel to Europe, which administration officials hope will advance clean energy goals.

Just posted this elsewhere. Apologies for missing your thread. India is a coming force economically and increasingly acts as a counter to China so this is an interesting development.

President Biden did a really nice job getting NATO to coalesce in support of Ukraine, and has now done a really nice job getting a number of nations to coalesce in opposition to Chinese economic, military, and multi-regional hegemony.

More like Modi is a piece of crap that coerced the G20 into not blaming Putin for aggression.

Seriously, get help with that sensitivity issue.

Coalesce NATO. Putin invaded Ukraine because Biden is an incompetent fool. Biden got us into this mess, he’s been late to the party in every decision he’s made.

No, Putin invaded because he wanted to. Nothing more, nothing less.

Putin invaded because he could. Biden’s exit from Afghanistan was a flagrant demonstration of weakness and lack of resolve. Biden made some of the most idiotic tactical decisions in our history, and for that matter so didn’t Trump. Pulling troops out before civilians, how dumb is that? Had Biden rushed A-10s, F- 16s, M-1s and 2s 8 months ago Putin’s Army would be a scrap heap. So much for leading from behind.

Biden followed the Afghanistan withdrawal agreement brokered by Trump. It was messy and it was a difficult undertaking, but it was also the largest evacuation undertaken since World War II. Today, no more American troops are losing their lives in Afghanistan. Today is 911. Trump wanted to meet the Taliban at camp David on 911.
The United States has always fought proxy wars with Russia. It would seem that you’re saying that we should’ve escalated our involvement sooner.

You’re also an idiot who supports racists.

You must not have been very good at it if you believe that you can render a diagnosis based on internet posts. You should ask yourself why anything I do is bothersome to you. You can always put me on ignore unless of course you are sensitive to my comments and have a need for revenge.

Trump was, in my opinion, wrong as wrong could be. Racist!!
