US Assumes G20 Presidency Amid Unusual Circumstances

The United States has taken over the G20 Presidency in a very unusual way.

Normally, the outgoing president hands over the baton to the incoming president at a big meeting.

But this time, the US didn't go to most of the meetings, including the big one, because they were boycotting.

So, the South African president, who was in charge before, didn't give the baton to the US.

Even though no one from the US was there, the US said they are now in charge and will focus on making the economy better.

They have some special themes they want to work on, but the articles don't say what those themes are.

It's a bit confusing, but that's what happened.
