World leaders, who have already arrived in South Africa, include India’s Prime Minister Narenda Modi, Vietnam’s counterpart Pham Minh Chính, and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
The Summit, hosted under South Africa’s G20 presidency, comes at a time of global uncertainty and the leaders are expected to focus on poverty reduction, sustainable development, and building resilience against economic shocks.
They will also deliberate on trade, investment, and strategies to address inequality in developing nations.
The White House has released a short statement on X, saying its Chargé d’Affaires in Pretoria will attend the Declaration handover ceremony as a formality.
However, the United States says that it will not be joining the G20 discussions.
