Video: Argentina and the G20

Panelists focused on Argentina's G20 Summit—the first one to be held in South America—and covered the event's three main agenda items.

Speakers:

  • Pedro Villagra Delgado, Argentina’s Sherpa to the G20
  • Laura Jaitman, G20 Finance Deputy, Ministry of Treasury, Argentina
  • Jorge Argüello, President, Fundación Embajada Abierta
  • Susan Segal, President & CEO, Americas Society/Council of the America

In assuming the presidency of the G20, Argentina has set a list of priorities that are "people-centered." At an AS/COA event in New York, G20 leaders discussed the three main agenda items around sustainable development—the future of work, financing infrastructure, and sustainable food security—and the methods they plan to use to reach consensus at the first G20 summit to be held in South America, taking place in November. They also discussed the summit's work on international trade in relation to recent U.S.-China tensions.
