On the 20th (local time), the UK Foreign Office announced that the G7 Foreign and Development Ministers' Meeting will take place from the 3rd to the 5th ahead of the G7 Summit. In addition to the G7 countries, foreign and development ministers from South Korea, India, Australia, South Africa, and the Secretary-General of ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) will also attend this meeting.
