Expanding the G7: Japan Invites New Guests to Address Changing Global Dynamics

Japan's Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is hosting this year's G7 summit in Hiroshima and has invited eight additional countries to join the discussions. The expansion of the guest list reflects the changing international order and the need for the G7 to seek influential new allies.

The invited countries, including Australia, India, Brazil, South Korea, and others, represent regions such as Asia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands, aiming to establish an alternative to Chinese and Russian influence. The move highlights Japan's efforts to build a more global coalition and engage with developing countries in the Global South.

How important do you think it is for the G7 to include countries from diverse regions to address global challenges effectively?
