They’re known as \u201cfamily photos,\u201d the images of world leaders posed in faux relaxation during global summits.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And like portraits of a family that has isolated a dysfunctional member, recent \u201cfamily photos\u201d from the G7 and G8 \u2014 the world’s most industrialized nations \u2014 show how Russian President Vladimir Putin has been outcast.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Russian president has faced unprecedented international isolation since his nation invaded Ukraine in February 2022. An International Criminal Court arrest warrant hangs over his head and clouds his prospects of traveling to many destinations, including those viewed as Moscow\u2019s allies.<\/p>\n

It was only 10 years ago when Putin stood proudly among his peers at the time \u2013 former U.S. President Barack Obama, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel and former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe \u2014 at a Group of Eight summit in Northern Ireland. But Russia has since been kicked out of the group, which consists of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Britain and the United States, for illegally annexing Crimea in 2014.<\/p>\n

Images from the G7 summit this year show leaders of the same governments, minus Putin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
