G20 Countries Implement Major Export Restrictions

WHAT IS A G20 SUMMIT – OVERVIEW

The G20 group is an intergovernmental forum that was formed in the year 1999 and comprises 20 major countries including the European Union. The major agenda discussed in this summit remains the same most of the time which is related to Global Economy development. Topics such as sustainable development, financial stability, and climate change are amongst the major agendas that are discussed in this summit.

Till the year 2022, the member countries which were a part of the G20 group were: Argentina, India, Russia, South Africa, Italy, Spain, The United Kingdom, and many more major nations of the world. If we start to calculate the percentage of GWP of the 20 member countries, then it will account for close to 80% of the total GWP.

You would be surprised to know that the G20 works without any staff or head. It’s the tradition of chair rotation every year to decide the next destination for the summit to hold. The selected country is termed as a temporary secretariat for that year.  In the year 2021, the G20 summit was held in Italy, and in the current year, it’s going on in Indonesia from 15th November 2022 to 16th November 2022. The venues for the years 2023 and 2024 have already been decided as India and Brazil respectively.

With reference to the economic uncertainty that arose due to the worldwide pandemic, the Ukraine war, and the food crises, the G20 nations implemented many export restrictions over the world. The director-general of WTO, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala released guidelines to stop adopting measures that hinder trade as it may lead to a worsening of the global economic outlook.

CONCLUSION

To wrap up the discussion and summarize the whole discussion, the main reason for pacing the export restrictions is only to keep the stock with each country in case of any unavoidable calamity strikes the nation or world.

By implementing export restrictions on food items, fertilizers, and other basic items, every nation will become capable to stock up on these goods and using them if any unforeseen situation arises.
