At the 2025 G20 Summit, Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan delivered a call for fair, transparent reform of the global trade system, emphasizing the need for a multilateral framework that empowers active participation and equity among all nations. He urged G20 alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and highlighted the necessity of balancing economic growth with environmental responsibility, addressing sovereign debt, and enhancing food, energy, and digital security. Prince Faisal specifically stressed global coordination to curb illicit financial flows and boost domestic resource use—essential for stability and financing sustainable development. Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly echoed demands for a more responsive international financial system for developing nations, called for increased access to concessional funding, and pressed the G20 to initiate the second phase of President Trump’s humanitarian aid and reconstruction plan for Gaza—including an international conference hosted in Egypt and support for a two-state solution to the Palestinian crisis.
