Hi, I have always appreciated your great help. Today, I want to finalize the English grammar question. Please help me again get out of this long time trouble. "Three nations , including the US, will partake in the convention". So what do you think of ", including the US,". Is this an added information and a contraction of the non-defining relative clause, "which includes" or an adverb phrase and a contraction of participial construction, "and three nations include the US"? Please help me and thanks a million again for great help so far in advance,

It is not a contraction of anything; it is non-finite participial clause.
