JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/Asia News Network): President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo should feel relieved because all foreign ministers of the forum have confirmed their attendance, including United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
The ministers normally issue a joint statement at the end of the G20 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (FMM) in Bali, but as it would be impossible for them to reach common ground, especially on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the host is likely to issue a chairman’s statement instead.
