The Group of 20 (G20), established in 1999, is an international cum inter-governmental organisation, with the objective of bringing together the most important developed and emerging economies in the world. The G20 is a similar organization to the G7, comprising seven members of the most advanced economies in the world. Their decisions and actions influence the political, economic, and socio-cultural life of every member of the global village. No African country is a member of the G7. While the Russian Federation was invited in 2014 to the organisation, it left in 2017.
