The G20 will be diminished under the leadership of the United States, that will assume the Presidency of the bloc from South Africa later this month. That's the view of leading development economist Prof Jayati Ghosh, who also serves as a member of the G20 Extraordinary Committee of Independent Experts on Global Inequality.
Ghosh, who is a development economist based at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, was responding to various statements by senior U.S. Government officials, who've cast aspersions about South Africa's theme of Solidarity, Equality and Sustainability while promising to whittle the bloc back down to basics when Washington assumes the leadership mantle ahead of hosting next year's Leaders' Summit in Miami, Florida.
