블라디미르 푸틴 러시아 대통령이 국제사회로부터 점점 고립되고 있다.
CNN은 19일(현지시각) 'G20 정상 회담' 내용을 보도하며 세계 무대에서 제외된 푸틴 대통령에 대한 국제사회의 입장을 다뤘다.
G20 정상회담에서 대부분의 회원국들은 우크라이나 전쟁을 강력히 규탄하고 "이 전쟁으로 신음하는 민간인의 고통을 덜어주기 위해서라도 하루 빨리 전쟁이 종식되어야 한다"고 한 목소리로 말했다.
방콕에서 열린 아시아태평양경제협력체(APEC) 정상회의에서도 G20의 결의안은 그대로 반영됐다.
■Putin's isolation on the world stage was made clear after 3 leader summits.
The three major summits of world leaders that took place across Asia in the past week have made one thing clear: Vladimir Putin is now sidelined on the world stage.
The Russian president, whose attack on Ukraine over the past nine months has devastated the European country and roiled the global economy, declined to attend any of the diplomatic gatherings – and instead found himself subject to significant censure as international opposition to his war appeared to harden.
A meeting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) leaders in Bangkok closed on Saturday with a declaration that references nations’ stances expressed in other forums, including in a United Nations resolution deploring “in the strongest terms” Russian aggression against Ukraine while noting differing views.
It echoes verbatim a declaration from the Group of 20 (G20) leaders summit in Bali earlier this week.
“Most members strongly condemned the war in Ukraine and stressed it is causing immense human suffering and exacerbating existing fragilities in the global economy,” the document said, adding that there were differing “assessments” of the situation within the group.
Discussions within the summits aside, the week has also shown Putin who it is believed launched his invasion in a bid to restore Russia’s supposed former glory as increasingly isolated, with the Russian leader hunkered down in Moscow and unwilling even to face counterparts at major global meetings.
