G20: High Representative/Vice-President Josep Borrell travels to Indonesia to participate in the G20 Foreign Ministers’ meeting

On 7 and 8 July, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy/ Vice-President of the European Commission (HRVP) Josep Borrell will travel to Bali to participate in the Foreign Minister’s meeting of the G20, held in the framework of Indonesia’s G20 Presidency under the theme ‘Recover Together, Recover Stronger’.

The meeting takes place at a time when the socioeconomic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic are being exacerbated by Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, sending shockwaves across the global economy. The meeting will focus on the need to uphold and reinvigorate multilateralism and address urgent energy and food security challenges.

The High Representative will use this opportunity to recall that current circumstances need more multilateralism and global solutions than ever. The EU stands by its partners to work for common solutions and tackle challenges together. On the margins of the meeting, High Representative Borrell will have a number of bilateral meetings with Foreign Ministers from different continents, to discuss regional and bilateral issues and the global impact of Russia’s war in Ukraine, in particular on food security.
