UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Secretary-General Antonio Guterres sent a letter to finance ministers and central bankers from the world’s 20 leading economies Thursday urging they change course and steer a global economic recovery that includes developing countries hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact of the war in Ukraine and escalating climate emergencies.
The U.N. chief said in the letter ahead of the Group of 20 summit in the Indonesian resort of Bali next month that these world events along with the rising cost of living, tightening financial conditions, and unsustainable debt burdens “are wreaking havoc on economies across the globe.”
“The impact of these compounding shocks on developing countries is further exacerbated by an unfair global financial system that relies on short-term cost-benefit analyses and privileges the rich over the poor,” he said.
Guterres said immediate efforts must be made “to end the cost-of-living emergency and increase liquidity in developing countries.”
Urging the G20 to abandon the status quo, he said the U.N. system and its partners have proposed a “stimulus” to address deteriorating market conditions and accelerate progress toward U.N. development goals for 2030 that include ending extreme poverty, ensuring a quality education for all children, and achieving gender equality.

UN Chief thinks he’s Joe Biden talking to leaders who can’t care less.
The 20 leading economies are being crushed by the U.N. and its buddies at WEF and in Davos.
These elitist pricks would be using their time better to find a cave deep and far from any population of people that might survive their calumny.
Send birth control. Lots of it.
He sounds like Bergoglio.
Or else what?
Bull crap!
I wish we could take back all of our help ($) retroactively. Get off your lazy asses, make your better places and stop coming to America.
How ‘bout somebody dropkick Antonio’s ass through the goalposts of life. To hell with the UN leeches.
Dear u.n. Phu cough!

The only good found in an asteroid strike blasting Earth would be the end of the UN.
“...A member of the Portuguese Socialist Party,
Guterres served as prime minister of Portugal from 1995 to 2002...”

It’s about time we stand up and shake these blood sucking politicians off our back. Worldwide the struggling taxpayers have got to put a foot down. Enough!
No.
Most of these countries have been “developing” for over 50 years. When are they going to finish “developing”? What a crock.
