Answer (1)
Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: designated


Solution : The right choice is the second option.

Using designated in the sentence means that during its 2009 meeting, the G20 officially assigned or declared itself to be the primary forum for international economic and financial cooperation. This term indicates a self-assignment of a specific role or status by the G20.

The meanings of the other words are as follows:

  • Values: This refers to principles or standards considered important and desirable.
  • Appointed: This refers to the act of officially assigning someone to a particular position or task.
  • Offered: This implies providing something willingly or presenting something for consideration.

Therefore, the complete sentence would be: "The G20 designated itself the principal arena for international economic and financial cooperation during its 2009 meeting."
