UN representative points to Beijing's global leadership

A rich package of policy actions in line with the Chinese G20 presidency's priorities are expected to be among the outcomes of the G20 Summit, G20 Sherpa Lenni Montiel said.

The package includes "breaking a new path for growth, more effective and efficient global economic and financial governance, robust international trade and investment and inclusive and interconnected development", said Montiel, who is assistant secretary-general for economic development in the United Nations' Department of Economic and Social Affairs.

The summit on Sunday and Monday, hosted by China for the first time, will take as its theme "Toward an Innovative, Invigorated, Interconnected and Inclusive World Economy".
