The 50th G7 summit was held from 13 to 15 June 2024 at Borgo Egnazia in the city of Fasano in Apulia, Italy.

Summit Conference

All G7 member states participated in the summit, including the representatives of the European Union. The President of the European Commission has been a permanently welcome participant at all meetings since 1981. On 17 February, the G7 Foreign Ministers met informally at the Munich Security Conference. As Chair of the meeting, Italy's Minister for Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani released a statement. The ministers expressed "unwavering support" to Ukraine's sovereignty and demanded clarification on the death of Alexei Navalny. They also addressed regional conflicts in the Middle East and the Red Sea, condemning terrorist attacks and reporting concerns about Iran's nuclear program.


      Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni announced in November 2023 that Fasano would be the headquarters of the G7.

      Italy, coinciding with its G7 presidency in 2024, emphasized strategic partnerships with Africa.

      This was the first time that a Pope has attended a G7 summit.
