Which of the following was the latest member of the group of advanced industrialized nations transforming G-7 to G-8 ?
Answer: D
The country that turned the G-7 into the G-8 was Russia.
The G-7 of advanced industrialised democracies consisted of the United States, Japan, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and Canada. Russia was drawn into its meetings in the 1990s and became a full member at the Birmingham summit of 1998, creating the G-8. It was suspended in 2014 after its annexation of Crimea, and the group reverted to the G-7.
The UK and France were founding members of the original group in 1975, and Canada joined in 1976 to make the G-7, so none of them was the addition that formed the G-8.
