Solution

Correct Answer: Option D

 

The G8 (G7 from 2014 due to Russia's suspension) is an inter-governmental political forum of the world′s major highly industrialized economies in countries that view themselves as democracies.

The forum originated with a 1975 summit hosted by France that brought together representatives of six governments: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, thus leading to the name Group of Six or G6. The summit came to be known as the Group of Seven, or G7, in 1976 with the addition of Canada. Russia was added to the political forum from 1997, which the following year became known as the G8. In March 2014 Russia was temporarily suspended following the annexation of Crimea. The European Union is represented at the G8 since the 1980s as a "nonenumerated" participant, but originally could not host or chair summits.
