Which of the following country is not included in G-20?

Appeared in: NORCET -4 , 2023

Explanation

The question requires identifying the country that is not part of the G-20 group from the given options.
The G-20 is an intergovernmental forum comprising 19 sovereign countries, the European Union (EU), and the African Union (AU).
A review of the member list confirms that Brazil, Canada, and China are all members of the G-20.
Pakistan is not a member of the G-20, making it the correct answer.

Option A: Brazil is a member of the G-20. It is one of the world's major emerging economies and a key player in the group.
Option B: Canada is a member of the G-20. As a major developed economy and a member of the G7, its inclusion is standard.
Option D: China is a member of the G-20. It is the world's second-largest economy and a crucial member of the forum.

Clinical Relevance

Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain General Knowledge: International Organizations as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
While not a clinical question, general knowledge is part of nursing entrance exams to assess a candidate's overall awareness.
Awareness of global forums like the G-20 is relevant as their decisions on economic policy, climate change, and global health initiatives can indirectly impact healthcare funding, resource allocation, and international health regulations that nurses must follow.
For example, G-20 commitments to pandemic preparedness can influence national health policies and funding for nursing education and infrastructure.

How to Approach the Question

First, identify the core subject of the question, which is the membership of the G-20 international group.
Note the negative keyword 'not'. This means you are looking for the outlier, the country that does not belong to the group.
Recall or look up the list of G-20 member countries.
Systematically check each option against the list of members.
Eliminate the options that are confirmed members (Brazil, Canada, China).
The remaining option (Pakistan) is the correct answer as it is not a member of the G-20.
