  U.S. Proposes G20 Format Shift, sparking Diplomatic Dispute over South Africa's Role. Major international outlets are reporting a significant diplomatic maneuver by the United States. According to these reports, senior U.S. officials, criticizing South Africa's recent G20 presidency as having "undermined economic growth" and advanced "divisive agendas," are preparing a new framework for the 2026 summit. This proposed "New G20" format would exclude South Africa and extend an invitation to Poland in its place. The United States, as the host nation for the 2026 G20 summit in Miami, holds the prerogative to set the invitation list for that year's meeting. This procedural point is at the heart of the emerging controversy. While the G20 has no permanent secretariat and its membership has evolved, the reported move to unilaterally replace a founding member like South Africa would represent an unprecedented break from tradition and collective consens...
