Live: G20 Summit Comes To A Close In China

The stakes are high for China to pull off a trouble-free summit, its highest profile event of the year, as it looks to cement its standing as a global power and avoid acrimony over issues like the South China Sea territorial dispute. Prime Minister Narendra Modi today flew into this Chinese city for the crucial G20 summit and talks with top world leaders, including one with Chinese President Xi Jinping on irritants in bilateral ties like India's Nuclear Suppliers Group or NSG bid and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, which runs through PoK.

Avoid 'Empty Talk', Cure Global Economy: China Tells World Leaders At G20



Xi Jinping said the world economy "still faces multiple risks and challenges including a lack of growth momentum and consumption, turbulent financial markets, receding global trade and investment".

The rise of protectionism is challenging economic globalisation, imperilling multilateral trade arrangements, and despite regulatory reforms market volatility is gathering pace, he said.

"We hope the Hangzhou summit will come up with a prescription for the world economy and lead it back to the road of strong, balanced, comprehensive and sustainable growth," Xi said.
