Foreign ministers from the UK, US and other leading nations have met for the first time in more than two years amid tight coronavirus restrictions.
Dominic Raab welcomed his counterparts to Lancaster House for the G7 meeting, the first opportunity for representatives of the group of industrialised nations to meet face-to-face since the pandemic hit.
The Foreign Secretary and the other ministers were separated from each other by clear screens at the summit table, while the number of aides present in meetings was also limited.
The Foreign Secretary, wearing a face mask, welcomed his counterparts from France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Canada, the US and EU, with awkward forearm bumps replacing the usual handshakes.
