What is G7? History of the International Group of Seven

Join me as we delve into the history and significance of the International Group of Seven (G7). From its origins to its current role in global politics, we explore the impact this group has had on international relations and economic policies.

so... G7... This group is made up of seven of the world's largest advanced economies, including Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Today we'll be exploring the history and significance of this influential group.

The G7 was first established in 1975 as an informal forum for leaders to discuss economic issues facing their countries. At that time, it was known as the G6 and included only six countries: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Canada joined in 1976 to form what is now known as the G7.

Over time, the G7 has expanded its focus beyond just economic issues to include discussions on a wide range of topics such as climate change, security issues and global health crises. The group meets annually to discuss these issues and coordinate their policies.

One significant event that helped establish the G7's role in global politics was its response to the 1979 oil crisis. At that time, oil prices had skyrocketed due to political instability in Iran. The G7 leaders met in Tokyo that year and agreed to coordinate their energy policies to stabilize prices. This marked a turning point for international cooperation on economic issues.

Another important moment for the G7 came in 1991 when it played a key role in ending apartheid in South Africa. The group imposed economic sanctions on the country, which helped to pressure the government to end its discriminatory policies. This demonstrated the G7's ability to use economic leverage to achieve political goals.

In recent years, the G7 has faced criticism for its lack of diversity and representation. Some have argued that it should include more countries from the Global South and emerging economies. In response, the G20 was established in 1999 as a forum for a broader range of countries to discuss economic issues.

Despite these criticisms, the G7 remains an important forum for global cooperation on economic and political issues. Its members represent a significant portion of the world's economy and have significant influence over global policies.

That's all for today's episode on the International Group of Seven. I hope you enjoyed learning about this influential group and its history. Join me next time as we explore another topic in depth.

Next year the United States will be hosting the 2020 G7 economic summit.

Trump’s profits from the Trump National Doral luxury golf resort in Miami, Florida have fallen 69% in the past two years. (According to Trump’s own tax consultant, the losses are the result of “some negative connotation that is associated with the brand.” In other words, the Trump name has been hurting Trump’s businesses.)

What do these two things have to do with each other?

“Trump has bigger designs for the Doral club: He has suggested holding next year’s Group of Seven meeting — a gathering of world leaders — at Doral or another of his luxury resorts.”

Problem solved!

The Trump Organization did indeed submit a bid to host the 2020 G7 summit at the Trump National Doral. The Trump administration has now formally selected Trump’s resort as one of the few official finalists. Trump’s latest gambit to add to the $1.6+ million he has already reaped in profits from his presidency--not to mention the $1.5+ million in campaign donations he’s paid to himself--appears to be going swimmingly.
