Western Leaders Dominate Davos Guest List
|
8.1
Alec Hogg analyzes the 56th World Economic Forum guest list for Davos next week, noting a record turnout—about 400 political leaders, nearly 65 heads of state and roughly 850 CEOs—but a conspicuous absence of BRICS leaders Xi Jinping, Lula da Silva and South Africa’s Cyril Ramaphosa. He says Davos has pivoted to a Western, tech-centric agenda led by Donald Trump and Big Tech, and notes South Africa lost a platform to publicize its removal from the EU high-risk list.
