Russia's expulsion from the G20 is unlikely, with most members either against removing Russia from the group or undecided on the matter. G20 members are likely to maintain their positions, driven by national interest considerations. Indonesia - the G20 president for 2022 - invited Russia to attend this year's summit, to be held on 15-16 November, and extended a one-time invitation to Ukraine, which is not a G20 member. The position of Indonesia is crucial because, procedurally, a country's expulsion from the G20 must be communicated by the host country. China and India will continue to maintain strategic independence regarding the conflict and are also highly unlikely to support Russia's expulsion.
