World leaders to join forces to destroy ISIS
World leaders from the Group of Twenty (G20) rich and developing countries vowed to join forces to destroy the Islamic State or ISIS in the wake of last Friday’s (November 13) terror attacks in Paris.
An article published by NY Times on November 16, 2015 said that during the two-day G20 meeting held in Turkey on November 15-16, 2015 , leaders of the world’s top 20 economies called the Paris attacks as an “unacceptable affront to all humanity” and vowed to boost intelligence-sharing to crack down on movements of foreign fighters across borders, cut off terrorist funding and strengthen border security in Europe.
United States President Barack Obama, who called ISIS as “the face of evil,” urged other nations to exert more effort to confront the threat the terror group poses. The United States, he said, is standing with France in hunting down the perpetrators of the coordinated attacks in the French capital and said. “The killing of innocent people based on a twisted ideology is an attack not just on France, not just on Turkey but it is an attack on the civilized world.”
The U.S president vowed to intensify the U.S. led airstrike operations against ISIS.
India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi said combating terrorism must be the major priority for the G20.
“The entire humanity must stand together as one against terrorism. The need for a united global effort to combat terrorism has never been more urgent. This must also be a priority for BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) nations,” he said.
Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel called for the intensification of cooperation between intelligence agencies as well as the military in the fight against terrorism.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said the Islamic State’s ability to generate funds through oil smuggling must be stopped.
British Prime Minister David Cameron, meanwhile, said it is urgent that a political solution to bring peace to Syria should be found so that the millions of Syrian refugees can return home.
Cameron announced to host a donor conference early next year to raise funds to solve the flood of refugees spilling out of the war-torn Syria.
