From the emergence of crucial developing countries to security worries, including growing aggression from China, North Korea and Russia, here's a look at the G7, who will attend and some of the key issues.
Leaders of seven of the world's most powerful democracies will gather this weekend for the Group of Seven summit in Hiroshima, the location of the world's first atomic attack at the end of the Second World War.
As is customary in recent years, leaders from some non-G7 countries and international organizations will also participate in some sessions. The invitations to leaders outside the G7 are meant to extend cooperation to a broader range of countries. A path to nuclear disarmament has appeared more difficult with Russia's recent nuclear weapon threats in Ukraine, as well as nuclear and missile development by China and North Korea.
"I believe the first step toward any nuclear disarmament effort is to provide a first-hand experience of the consequences of the atomic bombing and to firmly convey the reality," Kishida said Saturday during a visit to Hiroshima to observe summit preparations.G7 leaders are expected to strongly condemn Russia's war on Ukraine while pledging their continuing support for Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will join the session via the internet.
