ANSWER: Russia
 
Leaders from the world's richest countries are due to attend the annual G7 summit in the Bavarian Alps in Germany. They are expected to use the meeting to maintain diplomatic pressure on Russia over the conflict in eastern Ukraine. Greece's debt crisis and how to tackle global warming will also be on the agenda. Russia has been excluded from what was previously known as the G8, since the annexation of Crimea last year.
