G7 explained: what it is, who is in it, and what it does

Formed in 1975, the G7 brings together seven major economies; Russia's 1997 entry made the G8 until its 2014 exclusion after annexing Crimea.

Leaders meet annually and often invite partners, with recent agendas including the Strait of Hormuz, the war in Ukraine, and outreach to partners like Kenya.
