Jordan Daily – Halfway through the year between the Bali Summit in November 2022 and the New Delhi Summit on September 7-9, 2023, G20 members achieved 75% compliance with 15 of the 223 commitments they made last year, according to the interim compliance report released yesterday by the G20 Research Group and the Center for International Institutions Research. This is 7% higher than at the same point between the 2020 Riyadh Summit and the 2021 Rome Summit.
In a press release , the report covers actions to fulfill the priority Bali commitments taken only between November 17, 2022, and April 29, 2023. Another report covering the full inter-summit period between the 2022 and 2023 summits is being prepared for publication just before the leaders meet in New Delhi on September 9–10. Scores usually improve as the summit approaches, so the interim report offers a snapshot of where things stand at the mid point.
By member, G20 interim compliance was led by the United Kingdom and the European Union at 90%, followed by Argentina and Korea at 87%, and Germany at 86%. This year’s host, India, had 83%.
Among the 15 priority commitments, the highest interim score was on the environment commitment on sustainable development, followed by the climate change commitment on the Paris Agreement at 85%. The lowest score of 48% was on the Common Framework for Debt Treatment.
