Analysts See Possible G-20 Summit Breakthrough on Debt Crisis

Greg Flakus

Published June 19, 2012

Leaders of the world's most influential economies, known as the G-20, have completed the first of two days of meetings at their summit in the Mexican resort area of Los Cabos, at the tip of the Baja Peninsula. Non-governmental organizations have expressed concern that leaders are too caught up in the debt problems of several European nations to have much discussion of issues that are vital to the poorer nations of the world. But, as VOA's Greg Flakus reports from Los Cabos, analysts keeping a close eye on the proceedings say this summit could produce results that will benefit not just Europe, but the rest of the world as well.
