The 47th G7 summit is intended to be held during the summer of 2021 in the United Kingdom while it holds the presidency of the G7.[1]
In March 2014, the G7 declared that a meaningful discussion was currently not possible with Russia in the context of the G8.[2] Since then meetings have continued within the G7 process, however, Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron have been reported to have agreed that Russia should be invited to the G7 Summit in 2020 but Russia has so far declined.[3]
The attendees will include the leaders of the seven G7 member states as well as representatives of the European Union. The President of the European Commission has been a permanently welcome participant at all meetings and decision-making since 1981, while the current President of the European Council has been the EU's co-representative since the 36th G8 summit, hosted by Canada in 2010. In 2021, these two positions will be occupied by Ursula von der Leyen[4] and Charles Michel[5] respectively.
