Foreign ministers representing the group of 20 nations are meeting in Johannesburg, but this time, without Washington’s top diplomat. The world’s leading economies will address Gaza and Ukraine, and tackle the concerns of developing nations.
The gathering in South Africa marks the first time an African country is presiding over the forum. The US Secretary of State Minister Marco Rubio has rejected the agenda of ‘solidarity, equality, and sustainability’ and is boycotting the event due to diplomatic tensions with the host country. The European Union and the African Union, both part of the G20, will be attending alongside the UN. The US will be represented by its ambassador to South Africa.
