The G20 = energy ministers meeting of 20 major countries will be held in Indonesia on the 2nd, and it is expected that discussions will be held over energy security, etc., amid concerns about tight supply and demand for natural gas due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The G20 Energy Ministers' Meeting will be held in Bali, Indonesia on the 2nd, and Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Nishimura is scheduled to attend from Japan.
The main themes of the conference will be the dissemination of clean energy technologies for decarbonization, as well as discussions on energy security, amidst concerns about a tight supply-demand balance for natural gas, etc. due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. .
Japan is promoting the development of technologies for burning ammonia and hydrogen, which do not emit carbon dioxide, mixed with fossil fuels. I'm doing it.
On the other hand, with regard to energy security, there is criticism in Europe and the United States that "energy is being used as a weapon," considering Russia, which has reduced its supply of natural gas to Germany and other countries after its invasion of Ukraine.
Since Russia and China will also participate in this meeting, it seems that opinions will conflict over energy security, and it is unclear whether a joint statement can be compiled.
