WASHINGTON, April 20 (Reuters) – U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen told her counterpart from Indonesia that there will be no “organization-as-standard” for Russia in the worldwide economy given its invasion of Ukraine, the Treasury Office stated in a statement on Wednesday.

Yellen advised Indonesian Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati throughout a assembly on Tuesday that the United States will keep on to function with Indonesia, which at the moment leads the Group of 20 big economies, to progress G20 business enterprise.
