Addis Ababa, November 3 (WIC) – Prime Minister Meles Zenawi left for Cannes, France on Wednesday to attend the G20 summit to be held as of Thursday.
The two-day meeting is expected to dwell on current global financial and European debt crises on top of finding alternative solutions to the demands of emerging nations for infrastructural development.
It is to be recalled that a 17-member high-level advisory group was set up last year in Seoul, South Korea to meet the demands of emerging nations for infrastructural development.
The group has assessed alternative sources of funding for infrastructure development apart from those of governments.
Senior government officials saw off Prime Minister Meles upon departure at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport.
