The G20 foreign ministers' meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, began by reviewing the global economic and geopolitical crises and their implications for energy, food, trade and shipping security. Marco Rubio, the US Secretary of State and moderator of this meeting, said in his opening remarks on Friday, November 8, that the world is in a "moment of choice" and that ongoing crises seriously threaten the foundations of the global economic order. He listed the disruption in the supply of energy and food, the supply chain, trade and freedom of navigation among these threats and called for the cooperation of the members of the group to strengthen economic resilience and protect the markets. Rubio said that diplomats and political leaders must coordinate responses to emerging crises and translate shared interests into practical cooperation and concrete action. The American Secretary of State also wrote in his account on Channel X that maritime and food security are the foundations of economic security. He added that as part of the "America First" agenda, Washington urges its partners to protect shipping lanes, strengthen food security and reduce the economic consequences of geopolitical crises.
