G20 amplifies Global South voice, with more cooperation, development opportunities

The Group of 20 (G20) members agreed Saturday to accept the African Union (AU) as a new member in an effort to give a greater voice and more representation to developing countries.

The AU, whose previous designation was "Invited International Organization" of the G20, now has the same status as the European Union (EU).

The G20's approval is a response to a widespread call that China first explicitly made.

Observers believe it is a clear signal that the Global South will attract more cooperation and development opportunities as China and other major economies have pledged support for the region to shine in the global arena.
