Zelensky snubs Russia as he addresses 'G19' at G20
Russia is a member of the G20, but President Putin is not in Bali, sending his Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov instead.
Mr. Zelensky also advocated an extension of a soon-to-be-expired Ukrainian grain export agreement.
In his speech, Zelenskyy said: “I am convinced that now is the time when the Russian war of destruction must and can be stopped.”
He outlined a number of strategies including ensuring nuclear and food safety, ending hostilities and preventing escalation.
He repeatedly addressed the heads of state and government as “G19”, excluding Russia.

Trump ally Kari Lake loses in Arizona governor race
The closely fought governor’s race between Lake and Democrat Katie Hobbs was one of the most significant in the general election because Arizona is a battleground state and is expected to play a pivotal role in the 2024 US presidential election.
Lake’s loss is the latest defeat for a series of candidates endorsed by Trump, who on Tuesday is expected to announce another White House bid.

Israel calls US probe into journalist killing a 'mistake'
Israeli Defence Minister Benny Gantz has said that he would not cooperate with a US investigation into the shooting death of a Palestinian-American journalist, likely at the hands of an Israeli soldier.
Politico reported that the US Federal Bureau of Investigation was probing the May 11 killing of Shireen Abu Akleh during an Israeli army operation, an extraordinary move that came after the army refused to prosecute the soldier who may have shot her.
The FBI refused to confirm or deny the investigation.
But Gantz said the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) would not cooperate.
