Diplomats from the "Group of Twenty" (G20) countries have reached a consensus on the wording concerning Russia's war against Ukraine. Moscow had previously threatened to block the communique, Bloomberg reports.

According to sources, diplomats have overcome differences between Russia and the rest of the G20 nations. Bloomberg's informed sources suggest that the wording is generally similar to what was agreed upon at last year's summit in Bali.

The language still must be approved by G-20 leaders, but that’s seen as likely now that senior staff have agreed on the language.
