Britain said Friday it had not split the G20 group of leading developed and emerging nations into high and low priorities, but did not deny the existence of a document identifying 11 high-priority states. The Financial Times said it had obtained a confidential tender issued in December by the government to supply public relations services for the London G20 summit in April, which Prime Minister Gordon Brown has billed as a Bretton Woods II. The newspaper said the tender focused on 11 high priority states – the United States, Japan, Germany, France, China, India, South Africa, South Korea, Brazil, Italy and Saudi Arabia. The European Commission, which represents the interests of the entire European Union, was also included, the newspaper said, relegating Australia, Russia, Canada, Indonesia, Mexico, Argentina and Turkey to a G20 “B” list. When asked if Brown had an “A” list and “B” list for the G20, his spokesman said: “No, he doesn't.” Asked for details on the tender document, he declined to comment. The report came ahead of a meeting of G20 finance ministers in southern England hosted by British finance minister Alistair Darling this weekend under pressure to show progress to both a domestic electorate and still-falling financial markets. The meeting will set the scene for the G20 summit on April 2, where global policymakers will be under pressure to commit to firm action to stave off an economic slump and to clean up the financial system.
