Even though the exact wordings of the Delhi declaration are still unknown, the fact that Modi personally announced that a consensus had been reached suggests that there has been some sort of agreement between Russia/China combined and the other G20 bloc members, particularly on the language related to the Ukraine war.

“India’s G20 Presidency has been the most ambitious in the history of G20. There are 73 outcomes (lines of effort) and 39 annexed documents (presidency documents, not including Working Group outcome documents). With 112 outcomes and presidency documents, we have more than doubled the substantive work from previous presidencies,” official sources said.

As reported earlier, amid hectic parleys over finding a consensus on the wording for the Russia-Ukraine war, the G20 diplomats are learned to have arrived at a “compromise language” to describe the full-scale invasion.
