The United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Thursday said that he would be very happy to see the inclusion of the African Union as a member in the G20.
On India pitching to bring the African Union into G20, Secretary-General of the United Nations Antonio Guterres said, "The UN has a very solid partnership with the African Union. Africa has a serious problem of representation in today's international institutions. When they were created, the African continent had few independent countries. Most of the countries were still under colonial regimes..."
"I'm strongly supportive of the presence of an African country, at least as a permanent member of the Security Council, that I consider it is essential to reform Africa to have a stronger participation. I would be very happy to see the African Union as a member of the G20," he said.
The UN Chief further spoke on India's G20 Presidency and said that he is confident that India will do everything possible to make sure that the geopolitical divide that exists is overcome and that the G20 can conclude with possible results.
