Marco Rubio pulls plug on traditional photo op at meeting of foreign ministers after about one-third of countries threaten boycott
The traditional “family photo” to open the G20 foreign ministers’ meeting has been abruptly cancelled in the US after a host of nations – including Australia and the UK – refused to appear beside the Russian foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov.
The US secretary of state, Marco Rubio, pulled the plug after several European officials, the UK and Australia made it known they would boycott or walk out of the snapshot that often kicks off such international gatherings.
Rubio still opened the talks in Atlanta with an appeal for unity on the issues that threaten international security and trade.



If Putin has something on Trump then more power to him. So does Mamdani, apparently. What’s the problem?
I’ve seen your “right side” of history. No thanks.
Ukraine being run by the alt-right is a meme, Ukraine was being run by alt-right nationalists shortly after the revolution.
Then they lost the second election when Zelenskyj got to power. Zelenskyj speaks Russian (or at least spoke), and your claim is he’s an Ukrainian nationalist? Cmon mate, no ones that stupid.
Zelenskyj was the peace offering, Putin was still full of greed and went forth with the full-scale invasion. Putin however is an imperialistic nationalist wanting all power to belong to him, he’s everything you claim to hate. Yet you’re gobbling his propaganda.
Bullshit.
A coup is a coup is a coup is a coup. Maidan was no more a revolution than if Jan6 had succeeded.
Zelensky campaigned and won on the promise of peace through the Minsk Agreement. He said that America was trying to weaken Russia at the expense of Ukrainians.
Then he watched helplessly as the Azov Brigade refused his orders to stop shelling civilians in the Donetsk City Center, precipitating the annexation by Russia.
Zelensky is now just a kapo stooge who will never outlive his usefulness to his Banderite handlers.
Maidan was not a coup, it was a popular uprising. It was a mix of all political directions which stood against corruption.
Globally there’s a tendency for alt-right groups to be better organised, often through football ultras. Which is why they tend to get power after q popular uprising, while defaced/leaderless leftist groups tends to be run over in the following power vacuums.
You could definitely argue Jair Bolsonaro got to power due to primarily leftist run protests. You could argue occupy wall street was the prelude for Trump and let’s not get started on the countries follow the Arab Spring. All of these are correlated. All of them sees right wing or authoritarian figures win the immediately following power struggle
Do you have anything to substantiate your claim about Mamdani?
What is your theory? He just thinks Zohran is that sexy?
God how I wish you were local to a different area, man.
If you were smart enough to know how dumb you are you’d be embarrassed.
Because giving missiles to Nazis is “smart”.
