France invited Ethiopia, Singapore, Spain, the UAE and Equatorial Guinea to the Group of 20 nations summit which will be held in Cannes on November 3 and November 4.
The invitation of the five non-member countries was “in line with the principles defined by the G-20 under the Korean presidency and after consultations with all G-20 partners,” France said in a statement on Saturday.
Ethiopia is chair of the New Partnership for Africa’s Development, or NEPAD, while Singapore represents the Global Governance Group of 27 countries, or 3G Group, France said.
The UAE chairs the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council and Equatorial Guinea chairs the African Union, according to the statement.
