Davos Returns
After a two-and-a-half-year hiatus, about 1,300 business and government leaders will travel to the Swiss mountain village of Davos this weekend for the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum. The gathering, which is normally held in January, is taking place in the spring for the first time since its founding in 1971, after a Covid delay, causing scheduling issues for some. President Biden, who will be on a six-day diplomacy trip to South Korea and Japan, will not attend this year. In early 2017, Biden delivered a fiery address at Davos, his last major speech as vice president, calling Vladimir Putin the world’s greatest threat to democracy.
