Yellen Will Boycott Some G-20 Meetings

“Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen will boycott several meetings of the powerful Group of 20 nations this week to protest Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, with a conference in Washington emerging as a key test for world leaders who have condemned the war,” the Washington Post reports.
 
“Yellen will attend the opening session of the G-20 finance ministers’ meeting Wednesday to show support for Ukraine’s finance minister, who has flown in from Kyiv for the conference, according to a Treasury Department official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to share details of internal planning. But Yellen will skip other sessions over Russia’s presence.”
