Russian Finance Minister Attends G20 Meeting, US Invitation Draws Discontent from European Allies, Meeting Fails to Issue Joint Communiqué
Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov attended the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meeting in Bangkok on Thursday, his second in-person appearance at the event since the Russia-Ukraine conflict began in 2022. The move tested how much U.S. engagement with Russia would affect relations with European allies. German Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil expressed his displeasure, stating he would not pretend Russia had resumed normal G20 membership. The meeting failed to issue a joint communiqué, highlighting ongoing divisions among member states on the Middle East conflict, trade imbalances, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was absent from the meeting.
