Mittal said Africa's economic integration is gaining momentum, and expressed hope that the African Union will soon become a permanent member of G20.

Mittal asserted that the African voice in G20 is "absolutely important".

"Sixty per cent of the world's arable and yet uncultivated land is in Africa...today we have all seen the crisis that the world is going through on food production...Just adopt Africa as place to do agriculture, perhaps some value added agriculture...the entire world can change," he said speaking at the B20 Summit India 2023.
