Davos Forum 2025 Focuses on Global Cooperation Amid Geopolitical Tensions

The return of Donald Trump to the presidency looms large over discussions, with leaders addressing competition, climate, and economic challenges.

The World Economic Forum 2025 in Davos highlights the need for collaboration despite global fragmentation and intense competition between nations.
Donald Trump, three days into his second presidency, is set to address attendees via video, with his policies drawing significant attention from global leaders.
Key topics include the economic impact of geopolitical conflicts, climate change, and the potential for renewed trade tensions under the 'America First' agenda.
The forum faces criticism for its elitism and lack of focus on pressing inequalities, as highlighted by Oxfam's report on growing economic disparities.
A special committee has been established to address allegations of a toxic workplace culture within the World Economic Forum, with recommendations expected later this year.
