Story summary

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio hosted foreign ministers from the Group of 20 nations in Atlanta on October 30, 2026, amid deep rifts over the wars in Ukraine and Iran. The meeting faced significant controversy when several European diplomats refused to participate in a traditional group photo with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov due to tensions stemming from Russia's ongoing conflict in Ukraine. As a result, US officials canceled the photo session after concluding that the discord would be too much of a distraction. Despite criticism from allies, Rubio defended including Russia in the G20 meetings, emphasizing dialogue as crucial for addressing global crises. The discussions also covered energy access and the maintenance of open sea lanes for commerce amid rising energy prices following U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran.
