Premier Mario Draghi was chairing an
extraordinary G20 summit on Tuesday on the crisis caused by the
Taliban's return to power in Afghanistan.
The Italian presidency of the G20 pushed hard for the
extraordinary summit, which was held via video-conference and
started at 13:00 Italian time.
A statement said the issues on the agenda included "urgent
humanitarian support for the Afghan population; the fight
against terrorism, freedom of movement within the territory and
open borders".
Draghi will give a press conference afterwards.
