"By adhering to these principles, we can forge a path toward a sustainable future that leaves no one behind. We must ensure that development priorities of the Global South are not compromised...I am happy that during the recent New Delhi G20 Summit, this aspect has been properly addressed, including through a recognition of the need to rapidly and substantially scale up investment and climate finance from billions to trillions of dollars globally from all sources," the Prime Minister told the newspaper.
