Explanation

The G20 is a premier international economic forum comprising 19 countries and the European Union (and recently the African Union). Statement 1 is correct as all G7 members (USA, Canada, Germany, UK, France, Italy, and Japan) are part of the G20 [1][5]. Statement 2 is correct regarding the original BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa), all of whom are G20 members [4][5]. Statement 3 is incorrect; while Indonesia is a member, the entire ASEAN bloc is not individually represented in the G20. Statement 4 is correct as all five permanent members of the UN Security Council (USA, Russia, UK, France, and China) are G20 members [4][5]. Since statements 1, 2, and 4 are correct, and no option includes all three, the most accurate selection based on the provided codes is option 3 (1 and 4).
