WATCH | DIRCO spokesperson says African issues are at the centre of G20 talks
Video Summary
The transcript features a speaker, likely from South Africa's G20 presidency, emphasizing the lasting impact of their declarations beyond the G20 framework. Key achievements include addressing inequality, which influences the Holy Father's Jubilee report and the Holy See; the Africa expert panel report adopted by the UN; and the South Africa declaration on pursuing critical minerals and debt relief. These initiatives highlight unignorable global issues like climate change and the disadvantages faced by African countries in the international financial system, ensuring their persistence across future presidencies and forums. The speaker underscores that such priorities cannot be dismissed in a single year and will endure far beyond the current term in Johannesburg. In response to a query about events in Kenya today, the speaker notes ongoing discussions focused on critical minerals, leading to the summit's closure.
