LONDON: Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan on Sunday took part in the second day of the G20 Leaders’ Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The event, held under the theme “A Fair and Just Future for All: Critical Minerals, Decent Work, Artificial Intelligence,” brings together leaders from the world’s largest economies to address global challenges and economic cooperation.

Prince Faisal said the Kingdom “believes that artificial intelligence is a key driver in accelerating innovation, improving resource efficiency and enhancing sustainability across various sectors,” according to the Saudi Press Agency.

He added: “This requires an approach based on dialogue, cooperation, collective action, respect for international law, consumer protection and intellectual property rights, ultimately leading to a fair and inclusive governance system.”

The foreign minister highlighted the need for fair access to essential resources and investment to promote economic growth, while balancing development with environmental protection amid the world’s shift to a green economy.

The Kingdom is committed to partnering with G20 countries to create an inclusive and sustainable economic environment, promoting cooperation and equal opportunities for shared prosperity, he said.
