Geopolitical Tensions and AI Take Center Stage at World Economic Forum

Rising Geopolitical Tensions Threaten Global Economy

The annual gathering of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland has started with growing concerns over heightened geopolitical tensions and their potential impact on the already shaky global economy. The meeting aimed at rebuilding trust after a series of setbacks in recent years, including war, the Covid-19 pandemic, and a cost of living crisis. Three potential flash points – Ukraine, the Middle East, and Taiwan – overshadowed the discussions at Davos. The international community is wary of the potential consequences for global stability and economic growth.
