The Commission remains more important than ever in helping the countries to fulfill their shared leadership responsibilities in the wider international system. The membership has widened to reflect broader changes in the world. Thus, the Japan Group has become an Asia Pacific Group, including in 2009 both Chinese and Indian members. Mexican members have been added to the North American Group. The European Group continues to widen in line with the enlargement of the EU.
