Several sources say the Group of Seven (G7) has invited Syria to attend the upcoming G7 summit in France as a guest nation and that Syria will be represented by President Ahmed al-Sharaa. The invitation is for the June 15–17 summit in Évian-les-Bains in southeastern France, and the participation would mark Syria’s first appearance at a summit of the group since it was founded in 1975. One source says the invitation is delivered to Syria’s Finance Minister Yisr Barnieh, who attended the G7’s financial talks earlier this week in Paris. The Reuters report and another outlet describe Syria’s attendance as a guest arrangement rather than full membership, and both reports cite sources familiar with the matter without naming all participants. The accounts focus on the logistics of the invitation and the expected level of representation, with no additional details provided in the available text about topics for Syria or any conditions tied to participation.
