Updated:1 year, 10 months ago

New York (USA), September 26 (ANI): The President of the General Assembly, Philemon Yang, speaking at the G20 Foreign Ministers' Meeting on September 26 at the ECOSOC Chamber in New York said that the G20 countries bear the responsibility of leading the charge in realizing the ambitious goals set out in the Summit of the Future pact. Yang called on the G20 to take steps to advance the outcomes of the summit. “I call on the G20 to take decisive steps in advancing the outcomes of that summit, particularly in reforming the international financial architecture to make it more equitable and effective for all nations. G20 countries, representing approximately 60% of the global population and contributing around 85% of the world’s GDP, bear the responsibility of leading the charge in realizing the ambitious goals set out in the Pact.” Yang, while appreciating Brazil's initiative to convene this G20 meeting, open to all UN Member States, also appreciated previous G20 presidencies, including India. "I appreciate Brazil's initiative to convene this G20 meeting, open to all UN Member States. It reflects Brazil's commitment to reinvigorating international cooperation and reforming global governance institutions. I also wish to recognize the leadership of previous G20 presidencies from the Global South--Saudia Arabia, Indonesia, and India--in representing and advancing the interests of developing nations. This is a testament to the rising influence of the Global South in shaping global priorities. Their efforts have laid the groundwork for continued progress on global equity and inclusivity. As we look to the future, I express my optimism for South Africa's upcoming G20 presidency," he said.
