Russia has proposed hosting the G20 summit in 2013 and the decision will be made this fall, a top Russian presidential aide said, RIA Novosti reports.
“We have proposed our candidacy for the G20 summit in 2013. The decision has not been made yet as Turkey also wants to host the summit,” Arkady Dvorkovich told journalists after the G20 summit in Canada's Toronto. He said that the next two summits will be held in South Korea and in Mexico.
Leaders of the world's 19 biggest economies, including Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, arrived in Toronto for a working dinner on Saturday evening.
