USA Invites Poland to G20 Summit in Miami as Washington Affirms Its Rightful Place
The United States has officially invited Poland to the G20 Summit, which is set to take place in Miami in December 2026. This announcement was made by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, highlighting Poland’s growing economy and strategic partnership with Washington.
Poland’s Role in the G20
Marco Rubio emphasized that Poland deserves its place among the world’s largest economies. He remarked that Poland has risen from the limitations of the Iron Curtain, demonstrating that a focus on the future yields better results than holding onto past grievances.
- Event: G20 Summit in Miami
- Date: December 2026
- Host: United States
Criticism of South Africa
In his statement, Rubio criticized South Africa for losing its developmental potential. He stated that the South African economy is stagnating due to regulations rooted in “racial grievances.” As a result, the U.S. will not extend an invitation to South African officials for the Miami summit.
Rubio reaffirmed America’s support for the South African people but expressed opposition to the current radical government. He mentioned that invitations could be reconsidered only after the situation improves.
Conclusion: A Step Toward Membership
The invitation to the G20 marks a significant step for Poland as it aims for permanent membership in this important global forum. The G20 consists of 19 countries, the European Union, and the African Union, representing approximately 85% of the world’s GDP and two-thirds of the global population.
As preparations continue for the G20 Summit in Miami, Poland’s involvement reflects its strengthened ties with the United States and its potential role on the world stage.
