The G20 Health Ministers’ meeting saw the unanimous adoption of the Indian Health Ministry spear-headed outcome document, agreed upon by all G20 delegations, except for a contentious paragraph on the ongoing war in Ukraine in the 25-point document.
The document released on Saturday reaffirmed the commitment of G20 countries to continue strengthening the global health architecture.
Speaking immediately after the release of the document, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said that India’s G20 Presidency is carrying forward the discussions on the need for adaptable, affordable, sustainable, inclusive, and equitable access to medical countermeasures, as also discussed during the Indonesian and Italian G20 Presidencies.
