The G20 was started in 1999 following several major international debt crises. The group was formed to bring together world leaders to discuss the major challenges of the day.
As the name indicates, it has 20 members — mostly countries, but the European Union (EU) counts as one member. They are: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Britain, Canada, China, the EU, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey and the US.
Is the colon after "are" needed?
