Chinese President Xi Jinping is highly likely to miss the G20 summit being held in Delhi next week. Instead, Premier Li Qiang will represent China at the gathering of leaders from the world's major economies. This follows Russian President Vladimir Putin informing India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi that he will not attend in person due to needing to concentrate on Russia's military operation in Ukraine. Xi Jinping's expected absence means the leaders of two major G20 nations will not participate in discussions on pressing global issues.
