Kirton suggests that the OECD, IEA and the WTO make Russia a member, effectively making all G8 member states members of these MOs, with a view toward more effective cooperation, especially in years where Russia is the G8 summit host.

These are the commitments created by the MOs and adopted by the G8 as its own. Indeed there is a long tradition of the G8 explicitly endorsing, or adopting without explicit acknowledgment, commitments the MOs have already made. The UN’s Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are a contemporary case.
