The Summit of G-7 leaders, the group of the world’s “most industrialised economies”, was held in Germany this week. India, along with Indonesia and a few other countries, was a special invitee.
Last week, we discussed the BRICS summit of emerging economies, which was once seen as a complementary and now a potentially competitive grouping to the G-7. What both groups have in common is that their original agenda was driven by the economy.
In this episode of Worldview, we discuss the outcomes of the G-7 Summit and understand how India is navigating the diplomatic tightrope between the G7 and Russia-China.
Thank you for watching our video.

3:27 G7 is hardly 30-35% of global gdp, not 50%. please correct that
I really wonder, how you read so much of books, this is really appreciable. You are really motivation for me as I also enjoy reading, but definitely a no match to you.
It's always great listening to your insights

In the interest of world peace , the main objective of these grouping should be towards cooperation and development , towards world peace , healthcare and education to all.
These G-7, Davos etc. are not of much use in today's prevailing scenario. There is nothing to derive out of these meetings. Internet has made them of little use, but even than they have carnival🎊 values & that is ok.

India is not part of G 7 countries
USA and Europe are nothing but Imperialists, Aggressors, War-mongers, Destructors… For them, it's their way or no way. Now, the target is Russia. China, later. India, in future.
Always taking the winning side Hahahaha 😂 😁 😅 🤡 ❤️ Clown 🤡 World 🗺
You are a very good analyst and you are great to be great.
Need you to analyse and give your points about the G7 summit from Indias point of view and not be a sounding board for other writers,authors and the common summary of the G7 summitSomething original would be nice
India needs to stop being a western dependant. Russia and China will dominate economically and India would be wise to join them. western hegemony is destroying humanity, please don't help them India. This endless misery the west imposes on the world to maintain their dominance and control of other economies is a CRIMINAL PERSECUTION OF HUMANITY!
The G7 is about how we can maintain control of the world. The UK Foreign Minister just finished calling China a systematic risk then in the next breath asked it to enforce the ridiculous oil price cap that the other !dio+ Janet Yellen came up with. This club is essentially an Anglo-American one with a smattering of Western European vassals.
Where are they going to get the money to counter the Belt & Road initiative…These guys are delusional with respect to the rest of the world.
suhaisini madam please condemn muslims who are killing in the name religion .why so many muslim become murdered and don't follow law .why islam religion preaches so much violence .
madam don't only show anti bjp propoganda also truth about muslims crime .bjp is very good for india .you are muslims thets why don't like .kindly change your perspective be patriot of country.
Ukraine 🇺🇦 war is part fashion in the west. It is horrible what is happening, and thought needs to be given on what the end will look like (Ukraine with all it's territories minus Crimea?).
A very biased description of G7.
1. G7 is a gathering of countries which practice democracy even though it’s not perfect
2. G7 countries have the worlds most innovative companies. Mercedes Benz from Germany. Ferrari from Italy. Google and Microsoft from US. Apple from US.
3. G7 countries provide a predictable democracy which practices rule of law. No sudden takeovers by despots.
4. G7 countries are also the most visited countries and that’s for a reason. Nobody I know talks about trip to Moscow or Jeddah.
5. G7 countries also provide religious freedom and also protect all citizens practicing different religions.
G7 doesn’t happen by mistake.
Thank you so much mam for such a in depth analysis
Pls improve the microphone
