Explained: ‘Global South’ That India Looks To Be The Voice Of As G20 President

ABP News  

New Delhi: Later this week, India will be holding for the first time a summit meeting of all those countries that constitute the ‘Global South’ in an effort to give “voice to the unheard”, and thereby leverage India’s role as the current G20 president. Last week, India announced that it will host a virtual summit of these countries, calling it ‘Voice of Global South Summit’ under the theme — Unity of Voice, Unity of Purpose. “The Voice of Global South Summit is India's endeavour to provide a common platform to deliberate on these concerns, interests and priorities that affect the developing countries also to exchange ideas and solutions, and most importantly, to unite in voice and purpose in addressing these elements of our concerns and priorities,” Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra said last week, announcing the initiative. India's ongoing presidency of the G20 provides us with a special and strong opportunity to channel these inputs into the deliberation and discourse of the G20.” READ | India, Japan To Conduct Veer Guardian Exercise Eyeing ‘Common Adversary’ China What Is ‘Global South’ And Why It Is Important The term ‘Global South’ began by loosely referring to those countries that were left out of the industrialisation era and had a conflict of ideology with the capitalist and communist countries, accentuated by the Cold War.
