Economist Jayati Ghosh on G20, India, China & More

We get an update on the G20 summit, which welcomed the African Union as a permanent member and took place for the first time in India as the country faces criticism for bulldozing slums near the site of the meeting. "What we are seeing is a period of significant realignments," says economics professor Jayati Ghosh, who critiques the meeting for a lack of action and largely performative events such as a negotiated joint statement which stopped short of condemning Russia's aggression in Ukraine. "This G20 has done nothing for the major problems of our time," says Ghosh, who calls on the group of world leaders to act on climate change and wealth inequality. "The G20 is a collection of potentially very powerful governments - that don't necessarily represent the interests of their own people, I might add - but nonetheless, this collection has not done very much over the last 12 to 13 years."

[@manojmvalappil8278]

All that I could hear from Jayanti was Nothing, nothing, nothing… So I asked Bard what did G20 achieve so far. Posting only a portion of Bard’s answer. Here are some specific examples of G20 achievements: In 2009, the G20 agreed to a $4 trillion stimulus package to revive the global economy. This package helped to prevent a deeper recession and laid the groundwork for the subsequent recovery. In 2010, the G20 agreed to reforms of the financial system, including new capital requirements for banks and stricter oversight of hedge funds. These reforms have helped to make the financial system more resilient to future crises. In 2015, the G20 agreed to the Paris Agreement on climate change. The Paris Agreement is a landmark international agreement that aims to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. In 2020, the G20 agreed to a debt service suspension initiative (DSSI) to help low-income countries cope with the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The DSSI has provided billions of dollars in debt relief to over 50 countries. So what is the point in interviewing an economist ?

[@rajatprakash1357]

OMG really she has used the word "nothing" so much ...i mean 80% is nothing ....such a stupid lady

[@user-df6eb1kn1t]

basically to hear from Indian looking person that India did nothing! Thats how she acived everything in her life in the first place!

[@dinesh6489]

Did google Bard know everything has been implemented properly. How much amount has been spend ???😡🤮

[@manojmvalappil8278]

@@dinesh6489I guess you can use Bard and find the answers for yourself. Just to get you started on it, say for example, I picked the last point and asked Bard whether he knows how many biillion dollars were provided as debt relief and it promptly gave the answer - "According to the World Bank, the DSSI has provided over $12 billion in debt relief to over 50 countries as of March 2023. The largest beneficiaries of the DSSI have been Ethiopia, Zambia, and Chad." I picked the first point and asked for details. And here is what I got. The $4 trillion stimulus package agreed to by the G20 in 2009 was a coordinated effort by the world's largest economies to inject money into the global economy and prevent a deeper recession. The package included a mix of fiscal and monetary measures, such as tax cuts, spending increases, and interest rate cuts. The fiscal measures were designed to boost demand in the economy by putting more money in the pockets of consumers and businesses. The monetary measures were designed to make it cheaper for businesses to borrow money and invest. The G20 stimulus package was a significant effort to address the global financial crisis. It is estimated that the package helped to prevent a deeper recession and laid the groundwork for the subsequent recovery. Here are some specific details of the G20 stimulus package: The United States enacted a $787 billion stimulus package, which included tax cuts, spending increases, and infrastructure investment. China enacted a $4 trillion stimulus package, which included infrastructure investment and tax cuts. Japan enacted a $1 trillion stimulus package, which included public works spending and tax cuts. The European Union enacted a $1.3 trillion stimulus package, which included government spending and loans to banks. The G20 stimulus package was not without its critics. Some argued that it was too large and would lead to higher inflation. Others argued that it was not focused enough on helping the poor and vulnerable. Despite these criticisms, the G20 stimulus package is generally seen as a success. It helped to prevent a deeper recession and laid the groundwork for the subsequent recovery. Again what is the point in interviewing an economist to hear "Nothing" ? In this information age, information is available everywhere. So when they pick experts for interviews we expect the experts to do some homework and come prepared to give relevant information. You don't need an expert to say "Nothing".

@@bobdoe38 maybe but u better look at map U can visit India without flying over hostile countries 😊. It was absolutely safe to visit india via China. Also India is not a member of ICC so why this woman speaks about arrest warrant which is simply illegitimate in India....

As an Indian,I am literally concerned about the amount it spent for a meeting 🤦😡 4000+ Crores!!! Where other nations spent only 300Cr on an average. Kedi just want to start his election campaign he used people's money in the name of G20 🤦🤮

[@oyehoyemon2286]

We Did not spend 4k crores, that figure was including Building the Bharat mandapam and other assets! Capex is not Opex. Our Opex is very much in line with other presidencies.

[@paranoah8550]

@@oyehoyemon2286 Actually, it is 5000 crores. It is more than the annual budget allocated to environment, forests and sustainability

[@oyehoyemon2286]

@@paranoah8550 again do you not understand Capital expenditure and Operation expenditure? Capital expenditure= building new things like roads, buildings, rail (public infrastructure) or in India's case digital public infra (india stack). Operational expenditure= paying salaries, paying for fuel, admin costs etc. Moefcc india has 3k expenditure for salaries to safeguard national parks. For sustainability India pumps massive amounts into renewables which is part of min of energy, the same goes with paperless expo push etc This cost is for building new things that'll last a decade or more

[@paranoah8550]

@@oyehoyemon2286 Your reply seems deliberately unclear. The 5000 crores is not salaries....the kind of work that has been done for G20, is done on contractual basis. Look the the break up of the costs. A lot of it has gone into signages and "branding" which is all the temporary signs saying "G20 india" you see all over not just Delhi, but also cities like Pune. In a country like ours, it is an absolutely unnecessary expenditure

Very nice narration between two and discussion relevant to subject issue since formation of G7 , G20 seem nothing important have been achieved . Absence of Russia Putin and President Xi seem there is no Glow. Over all is BRI and BRICS Summit is much talk about in this Century . Mean G7 n G20 is Sun set past tense now .
