G20 Overview & Aim

New Delhi, the vibrant capital of India, recently played host to the prestigious G20 summit, where leaders from around the world converged to discuss pressing global issues.
Leaders from around the world came together and achieved a consensus, culminating in the New Delhi Leaders’ Declaration, emphasizing sustainable growth, green development, and multilateralism. While Russia and China were notably absent, the 18th G20 Summit saw enthusiastic representation from China’s Premier Li Qiang and Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

As the summit concluded, leaders paid homage to Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat. In a symbolic moment, PM Modi passed the G20 presidency gavel to Brazilian President Lula Da Silva, marking the conclusion of G20 Summit 2023.

Pandemonium in Paris

The recent riots in Paris have highlighted the deep-rooted issues of racism and police brutality in France. The shooting of Nahel Merzouk and the subsequent public outrage have shown that these concerns are not just isolated incidents, but rather part of a wider pattern of discrimination and abuse.

It is crucial for the French government and society as a whole to engage in meaningful dialogue and implement reforms within law enforcement to address these serious concerns and work towards a more just and inclusive society for all citizens.

Japan Paying It’s Families To Move Out Of Tokyo

Japan is facing a unique set of challenges due to its low birth rate and long-life expectancy. To curb this issue, the Japanese government has initiated a program to attract people to regional areas and combat depopulation. This program is called the “Million Yen Campaign” aims to relocate young adults who are willing to move out of Tokyo to any other child-rearing city outside Tokyo. As a part of the program the Japanese government is also offering incentives such as free childcare and education to the families willing to relocate. Will such a program motivate the eligible people to move out?

ARAB FOOTBALL DIPLOMACY

In 2010, Qatar was selected as the next World Cup host by drawing its name from an envelope. One of the most expensive marketing efforts in history will end with the tiny Gulf state after 12 years, with a buzz of controversy. As the World Cup comes to a conclusion in Qatar, many people are questioning how it happened that a small Gulf country with little history in football ended up hosting the most prestigious competition the sport has to offer. But is the choice to outbid rival nations and host a football world cup can be viewed as a massive marketing expense? Does it make financial sense for Qatar to host the World Cup of football?

East Asia Migration

Migration is a result of relative development in different countries. The change in social and economic factors as well as the demand for labour supply determines the pattern of migration in Asia. Migration in Asia can be traced back to the 19th century when Indians, Chinese, and even Koreans migrated in a world of constant change and their migration proved to be circular rather than permanent

UK ENERGY CRISIS

The UK is in the midst of an unprecedented energy crisis. The need for energy has increased over the past year as a result of the post-Covid reopening of economies, which has led to an increase in demand. To add fuel to fire, the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian conflict has restricted the UK’s access to gas supplies, resulting in energy suppliers paying more for gas and electricity due to the sharp increase in the wholesale price of gas, and this cost is now being passed on to the customer.
