In his keynote address at a conference titled “G20@20: Africa’s Moment – The Once and Future World Order,” South Africa’s High Commissioner to India Anil Sooklal voiced optimism about the success of the G20 summit in Johannesburg on November 22-23 and underlined that despite the boycott by US President Donlad Trump the summit will be substantive in addressing key global challenges.
“My view is that the G20 is too big to fail. The UN has had a turbulent past two decades, but it continues because we believe in it. It is our organization, where we have an equal voice and a platform to discuss challenges collectively,” he said. The panel discussion, held on November 12 at IIC, New Delhi, was moderated by Manish Chand, CEO, Centre for Global India Insights
