World leaders from the Group of 20 rich and developing economies broke with tradition and adopted a declaration at the start of their summit in South Africa on Saturday despite opposition from the United States, which is boycotting the two-day talks in a diplomatic rift with the host country.
There were no details of what was in the declaration, but South Africa promoted it as a victory for the first G20 summit to be held in Africa and its aim to put problems especially affecting poor countries at the top of the agenda.
The summit has been overshadowed by the U.S. boycott ordered by President Donald Trump and the U.S. had put pressure on South Africa not to adopt a leaders' declaration in the absence of an American delegation, South African officials said.
