G8
Major powers forum
G8 refers to the Group of Eight, an informal forum of major industrialized democracies that met annually from 1997 to 2014.
The members were Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Russia was suspended in 2014 following its annexation of Crimea, effectively returning the group to the G7 format.
The G8 summit addressed global economic policy.
