G8 Summit Enniskillen 20132013

The G8 was an intergovernmental forum consisting of the world’s largest high-income countries: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, the US, and Russia. The European Union also participated as a “non-enumerated member.” The goal of the G8 was to discuss major global issues, including trade, security, economics, and climate change. The Heads of State for the member countries would meet at an annual summit, with the agenda set by the host country. The G8 reverted to the G7 in 2014, following the suspension of Russia due to the annexation of Crimea.

The 39th G8 summit was held in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland from June 17 to June 18, 2013. The topics of discussion for the summit, as set by host country UK, consisted of tax evasion, data sharing, and the Syrian Civil War.
