Group of 20 nations will hold a virtual summit to “advance a coordinated global response” to the coronavirus pandemic Thursday, as the disease continues its rapid spread across the world.
They will discuss the economic and social impact of the pandemic, including its effect on the global supply chain, Indonesia’s foreign ministry said Wednesday. The gathering will be chaired by Saudi Arabia’s King Salman, who made a rare public appearance earlier this month telling citizens that his administration was doing everything it could to confront the outbreak.
