Group of 20 To Maintain Stimulus Measures

London, England, Nov. 9, 2009--The Group of 20 leading rich and developing countries agreed to maintain their stimulus measures in the wake of weak U.S. employment figures.

At a meeting in Scotland, the countries' finance ministers pledged to "continue to provide support for the economy until the recovery is assured" after U.S. jobs figures Friday showed unemployment at a 26-year high of 10.2 percent.
