Protest over G20 priorities
Description
The euro zone crisis is expected to dominate the summit of G20 nations in Mexico.
This group of objectors from Oxfam staging a mock plenary session in protest say that's all wrong.
SOUNDBITE: STEVE PRICE-THOMAS, OXFAM SPOKESPERSON, SAYING (English):
"While the euro crisis is clearly number one on the agenda for the G20 summit this week there are a number of other really important issues which it is essential the G20 tackles, issues of poverty, issues of food security and issues of financing for development."
World leaders arriving for Monday's start of the summit face a meeting where the euro zone's woes will dominate for the third year in a row.
The Group of 20 was created in 1999 to bring together financial policy makers from traditional economic powers and fast growing developing ones like China and Brazil.
When the world was threatened with global economic meltdown it became a forum for the leaders of member states to agree on counter-measures.
