Next week, the G20 Foreign Ministers meeting will take place at Marina da Gloria in Rio de Janeiro. This is the first major meeting of the G20 under Brazil's presidency. 

The year-long agenda will focus on President Lula da Silva’s key priorities: hunger, sustainable development, and global governance.  Lucas Padilha, President of Rio's G20 committee, emphasizes the crucial role of Brazil, particularly Rio, in 2024. 

CGTN's Lucrecia Franco spoke to Padilha about the city's readiness for both the upcoming ministerial meeting and the November G20 heads of state summit, also scheduled to be held in Rio de Janeiro.
