Dinner seating arrangements are painstaking
According to the British "Daily Mail", Italian President Mattarella hosted other leaders at the Quirinale Palace in Rome in the 16th century and wished the Glasgow Cop26 climate summit, which began the following day, a successful meeting.
World leaders sat around a huge table and their dinner menu included risotto with pickled salmon, pumpkin and white truffle, sea bass and orange cream desserts, and they also enjoyed salmon and sea bass.
The seating arrangement of this dinner, the organizers have worked hard, because some of the leaders attending the meeting are not so friendly.
The seating arrangements at the dinner party took a lot of thought
The first is between British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and French President Emmanuel Macron, who are at a time of high tension as the UK and France have just left the uk over post-Brexit fishing licences.
In addition, France and the United States, Britain, and Australia have also been very unhappy because of the "AUkUS" alliance that has been raging some time ago and the multibillion-dollar submarine deal.
As can be seen from the picture, Macron, sitting in the left middle of the table, is far away from British Prime Minister Johnson (lower left corner of the table) and Biden (middle of the table on the side) and Prince Charles (middle of the right side of the table), but the Daily Mail noted that "Macron and Biden's seating arrangement shows that the United States and France have repaired the relationship damage caused by the submarine trade."
When the leaders of France and Australia meet, the look in their eyes says everything
Since the "submarine storm", the first meeting between the leaders of France and Australia also appeared at the G20 summit.
According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported on the 31st, Australian Prime Minister Morrison, who is attending the G20 summit in Rome, said that he had taken the initiative to talk with Macron during the summit and said that the other party was "very happy". However, after the on-site photos were released, many netizens pointed out that Macron's eyes were full of disdain and distrust.
The report also said that although Morrison stressed that Macron was "very happy" about greeting each other. But many netizens complained, "Macron's body language is obviously saying that he doesn't like the person across from him, and there is no smile in his eyes." ”
Some netizens criticized: "What about Morrison's masks? Wearing a mask is also about respecting and protecting others. ”
The G20 show provoked discontent, and thousands of people protested on the streets
At the G20 meeting, countries were not harmonious, and there was no pause outside the venue.
The G20 summit was held in advance of the Global Cop26 Climate Summit, and climate and environmental issues are also an important topic of this meeting.
Host Italy is pushing the G20 to work together to support the UN goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, one of the visions of the landmark 2015 Paris climate agreement.
During the protest, one demonstrator wore a grim reaper mask
However, the local people do not seem to buy it. Earlier in the day, thousands of climate-concerned protesters, many of them young people, gathered in the city center to demand harsher action from governments rather than just lip service.
Climate activist Simone Fitchkill told AFP: "We ask G20 leaders to stop putting on a show and hope that they will finally listen to the people and take action on climate, as scientists have been asking for for years." ”
