(News Focus) After warm-up in Canada, S. Korea moves to center stage of G-20
By Lee Chi-dong
TORONTO, June 27 (Yonhap) -- This weekend's G-20 summit in Toronto, with a slew of thorny topics sidelined, was a warm-up event for South Korea's preparations to host the next session in November that may decide the fate of the new premier forum for international economic cooperation, officials and analysts said Sunday.
The end of the two-day Toronto gathering means the start of Seoul's full-fledged preparations to greet the leaders of the world's powerhouses.
South Korean government officials said the G-20 members produced some agreements in Toronto, such as reduction in deficits, but relegated leftover homework to the Seoul forum.
