Sixty heads of state and government are packing their bags and readying to fly into the luxury Swiss mountain resort of Davos ahead of the next World Economic Forum (WEF) annual meeting that begins Monday.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, French President Emmanuel Macron, Chinese Premier Li Qiang, and U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres are among the self-styled global luminaries set to alight from their private jet transports for a week of meetings, cocktails, and back slapping.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, and U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan will also take part at the 54th celebration of global power and elite management hosted by founder Klaus Schwab.

So too UK Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is going to Davos next week, appearing alongside Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch at an event hosted by JPMorgan Chase & Co. the American multinational financial services firm, Bloomberg reports.
More than 300 other public figures will join them to focus on “rebuilding trust” amid a world of uncertainty, as Breitbart News reported.
Another 2,000 to 3,000 people are on the official invite list, though many more flock to fringe events, swelling the population of the resort town from its modest permanent base of around 11,000.
Most will fly in to the local airport by private and commercial flights.
“This Annual Meeting will welcome over 100 governments, all major international organizations, 1000 Forum’s Partners, as well as civil society leaders, experts, youth representatives, social entrepreneurs, and news outlets,” the WEF boasts on its dedicated online site.
Just who is attending and how they will achieve their lofty goals is still to be determined.
Before the start of the WEF meet, a meeting of global security advisors will be held in Davos and many of them will also go on to attend the official program.
