Trade and global tensions, as well as the looming threat of climate change, are on the agenda as world leaders gather in Osaka, Japan for the Group of 20 summit on Friday. While discussions on the trade war between the U.S. and China are a major focus, other world leaders are also calling for broader perspectives in confronting global issues.
“This will be a difficult G20, there are global challenges to be met,” Donald Tusk, president of the European Union Council, said during a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. “We need to step up to avoid the climate threats… reform the World Trade Organization and prepare for the digital revolution.”
The G20 summit comes at a time of increasing global tensions, including the U.S.’ concern over Iran’s nuclear deal and its economic dispute with China.
President Donald Trump has at times found himself opposing other leaders in similar international events, particularly on issues such as Iran, climate change and trade.
