Nov. 22 (UPI) — The South Africa-hosted G20<\/a> summit began Saturday with some member states weighing a proposed peace plan to end the Russian-Ukraine<\/a> war.<\/p>\n

The two-day event is being held in Johannesburg amid a U.S. boycott<\/a> due to South Africa’s policies toward Afrikaners.\n<\/p>\n

The 28-point plan would require Ukrainian leaders to concede territorial gains by Russia, which they previously rejected, and limit the size of their military, The New York Times<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

The proposed plan would give Russia some parts of the eastern Donbas region and force Ukraine to forego any possibility of joining NATO, according to The Guardian<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump<\/a> presented the peace plan to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky<\/a> earlier this week and advised him to decide whether to accept or reject it by next week.<\/p>\n

European leaders attending the G-20 conference held a side meeting to review the plan and generally agreed that it needs to be revised to gain their support.<\/p>\n

The plan “includes important elements that will be essential for a just and lasting peace,” they said afterward in a joint statement.\n<\/p>\n

“But it is a basis that will require additional work,” they said, adding: “Borders must not be changed by force.”<\/p>\n

Representatives from Britain, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and the European Union signed the joint statement.<\/p>\n

The peace plan is not a final offer, though, Trump said<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

While several participating nations weighed the peace proposal, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa delivered the opening speech for the gathering of the world’s 20-largest economies, minus the United States.<\/p>\n

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi<\/a> lauded the summit being held in South Africa and said it’s time for the world’s leading economies support sustainable development.<\/p>\n

“With Africa hosting the G-20 summit for the first time, now is the right moment for us to revisit our development parameters and focus on growth that is inclusive and sustainable,” Modi said in a post on X.<\/p>\n

“India’s civilizational values, especially the principle of integral humanism, offers a way forward,” he added.<\/p>\n
