Q86 (NDA-II/2018) International Relations & Global Affairs › International Organisations & Groupings › Intergovernmental groupings Answer Verified

Who among The following is not a member of G7?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

The Group of Seven (G7) is an informal intergovernmental organization consisting of seven of the world's most advanced industrialized economies: France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, Italy, and Canada [3]. While Russia joined the group in 1997, transforming it into the G8, its membership was suspended indefinitely in 2014 following the annexation of Crimea [3]. Consequently, the group reverted to the G7 format, and Russia officially left the group in 2017. France, Germany, and Japan remain core members of the group, having been part of the original formation in the 1970s. The European Union also participates as a non-enumerated member. Therefore, among the options provided, Russia is the only country that is not currently a member of the G7.
