TL;DR Summary

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the African Union will become a permanent member of the Group of 20 (G20) during a leaders' summit in New Delhi. This move aims to increase cooperation between emerging and developing nations and wealthier countries. The African Union, which consists of 55 member states, has previously been a guest invitee to the G20. This decision potentially turns the G20 into the G21 and gives the African bloc a front row seat in one of the world's most powerful global governance bodies.
