Shouldnt Poland be invited into the G-20? [7]
Latest news shows that the World Bank now ranks Poland as the 18th largest economy in the world. (This is outstanding progress in my opinion, in just 20 short years).The article stated:
Poland's president says his country deserves to become a member of Group of 20 now that its economy has grown to become the 18th largest in the world.
President Lech Kaczynski argued that Poland, the largest of 10 ex-communist nations that joined the European Union in recent years, has grown in influence and belongs in the world's premier forum for discussing major economic issues.
"The place for my country is within the G-20," Kaczynski said Tuesday during a meeting with diplomats in Warsaw.
The G-20, which combines long-standing industrial democracies and emerging economic powers such as China and India, already includes fellow EU members Britain, Germany, France and Italy and the EU's rotating presidency.
While the G-20 represents a broad range of the world's regions, it also includes countries such as Argentina and Saudi Arabia whose economies are outside the top 20.
