G20 summit in Brazil to address Middle East conflicts and Trump's return to politics

The G20 summit in Brazil will focus on conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, alongside the implications of Donald Trump's return to the White House. Security is heightened following a failed bomb attack in Brasilia. Outgoing President Joe Biden will represent the U.S., while Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva aims to highlight Global South issues. Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attend, sending his foreign minister instead, while China's President Xi Jinping will participate. Lula will launch a "Global Alliance against Hunger and Poverty" at the summit. Leaders will also discuss taxing billionaires, a goal previously expressed by G20 finance ministers. Brazil will pass the G20 presidency to South Africa after the summit.
