The 2023 G20 Summit took place in New Delhi, India this past weekend. On the first day of the Summit, Saturday, September 9, the African Union was given permanent membership to the G20. This has been 7 years in the making, with South Africa being the only member. This is a big step for the continent, and provides evidence that Africa is a rising global power. Africa is wealthy with renewable energy assets, and wants industrial development closer to home rather than outside nations taking their resources.
