Explanation
The G20 was founded in 1999 (A), holds annual summits under a rotating presidency (B), and its members represent around 85% of global GDP (C). But it does not comprise twenty countries: it has 19 member countries plus the European Union, with the African Union added in 2023. Hence D is the not-correct statement.
