STANDUP (English): PENG ZHUO, Xinhua correspondent
"The three-day 2024 Group of Seven summit kicked off Thursday in Apulia, southern region of Italy with focus on global conflicts and relations with Global South. The crises in Ukraine and the Middle East, and the relations with the Global South top the agenda of the summit. The application of artificial intelligence, African issues and climate change are also included in key sessions."

Italy is holding the G7 rotating presidency this year. In addition to the G7 leaders, heads of state from over ten other countries and international organizations were invited to attend the conference.

Protests against the G7 summit are taking place in many places near the venue.

On the opening day, in Brindisi, a city 60 km away from the venue, protesters held Palestinian flags and displayed banners with slogans. They criticized the G7 for failing to play a positive role in environmental protection, social justice, and maintaining peace.

The G7 comprises Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan.
