The G-20 summit yesterday finally took place in Hamburg, Germany. The G-20 leaders condemned all terrorist attacks worldwide and reiterated their commitment to the fight against terrorism and its financing.
The leaders in the joint statement said "We will address the evolving threat of returning foreign terrorist fighters (FTFs) from conflict zones such as Iraq and Syria and remain committed to preventing FTFs from establishing a foothold in other countries and regions around the world. We recall UN Security Council Resolution 2178 (2014), which requires a range of actions to better tackle the foreign terrorist fighter threat,"
We reaffirm our commitment to tackling all sources, techniques and channels of terrorist financing and our call for the swift and effective implementation of UNSCR and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) standards worldwide. We call for strengthening measures against the financing of international terrorist organisations in particular ISIL/ISIS/Daesh, Al Qaida and their affiliates, the leaders said.
