There were concerns that the leaders of industrial and emerging market nations might not reach a consensus on the declaration.


However, around 3:30 p.m. (7 p.m. Japan time) on September 9, the first day of the summit, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi made the unexpected announcement that the declaration had been adopted.



Modi stated, "I have recently received the good news that, thanks to the hard work of all the teams, we have reached a consensus on the G20 Leaders Summit Declaration."


He made this announcement at the beginning of a meeting to discuss the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), health, and other issues.
