The annual edition of the World Economic Forum’s power conference in Davos began yesterday and runs through January 19.

As expected, the Swedish elite is represented on the list of speakers – this year including Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson (M), state power company Vattenfall CEO Anna Borg and car manufacturer Volvo CEO Martin Lundstedt.

This year’s main theme is “Rebuilding Trust”. Discussions and events will focus on “global security, job creation, climate initiatives and AI development”.

Governments from more than 100 countries are expected to attend, along with more than 1,500 representatives from specially invited companies, organizations, activist groups, media and social entrepreneurs.

“Davos 2024 is the 54th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum. Under the theme Rebuilding Trust, the meeting aims to restore collective agency, and reinforce the fundamental principles of transparency, consistency and accountability among leaders”, it says.

“How can we effectively deal with security crises, such as the current situation in the Middle East, while at the same time putting the floor under the structural forces of fragmentation? How can we identify areas where cooperation is essential to ensure a win-win scenario for all stakeholders?”

AI and climate

There will also be a strong focus on artificial intelligence and how it can become a “driving force for the economy and society”.

“How can we use AI to benefit all? How is the divergent regulatory landscape balancing innovation with societal risks? How will AI interface with other transformative technologies, including 5/6 G, quantum computing and biotechnology?”, they ask.

In addition, strategies will be developed on how to achieve “carbon-neutral and nature-positive world” by 2050 while “providing affordable, secure and inclusive access to energy, food and water” while trying to find out “how to balance these trade-offs to achieve social consensus”.

Finance Minister present

Although the actual list of participants is not public and there is no real public transparency as usual, it is clear that several Swedish leaders will speak at the event. Probably best known to the Swedish public is Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson (M), who will speak under the title “Good Growth: Lessons From the Field”.

“How can government and business overcome divergent priorities and contested models to balance growth with their citizens’ lives, happiness and well-being as a measure of success?”, is the question she wants to help answer.

The CEO of the shipping company Stena Line, Niclas Mårtensson, is also on the list of speakers to discuss the following:

“In 2023, the High Seas Treaty was signed into force, marking the end of more than a decade of multilateral negotiations. This agreement provides for the global governance of 95% of the ocean volume, addressing pollution, overfishing, climate change and biodiversity loss. What are the implications for business and government in this new compact and how can stakeholders collaborate to exercise collective stewardship?”

IKEA, Vattenfall and Volvo

IKEA CEO Jesper Brodin will speak about “climate and nature” and the need to find a “systematic response” to combat alleged climate change.

“Leaders are increasingly called upon to transform the current growth and development models to better steward the global commons and serve humanity”, the program says, among other things.

Vattenfall’s CEO Anna Borg is also there to talk about how the state-owned company has spent $15 billion on developing “climate technology” and how it has received support from several of the most economically important countries.

“What are the lessons learnt and what lies ahead in the journey to speed up and scale these technologies?”, are questions she will try to answer.

Volvo CEO Martin Lundstedt is in Davos to participate in a discussion on “climate action” and emissions reduction in the manufacturing industry, and how manufacturers can deliver new innovations and technologies to “successfully negotiate the green transition while maintaining growth”.

Zelensky and Milei

WEF “agenda-setter” Johan Rockström, professor of earth system science, will also participate in a session that will once again focus on climate change and how global warming is supposedly threatening the economies of the Alps and everyone who lives there.

“There is an opportunity for government, business, sports and civil society to rally together to enhance the resilience of these ancient landscapes. What are the strategies and business models needed for the alpine industry to adapt and thrive under new climate realities?”, is among the questions discussed in this session.

Other prominent international guests include Chinese Prime Minister Li Qiang, French President Emmanuel Macron, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Argentine President Javier Milei, and the leaders of South Korea, Spain, Belgium, Colombia, Switzerland, and many other countries.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will also attend the conference – but no representative from Russia has been invited. The US will be represented by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and other Senate representatives.

FN and NATO

The UN, IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization and NATO also have their leaders or most prominent representatives there. It is clear that the World Economic Forum has become the major annual gathering of the global elite, attracting the very top and not just those “lower down” in the hierarchy.

It can also be noted that the security around the power conference will be very high – as many as 5000 soldiers will “protect” the participants and be stationed around Switzerland. While the Forum is expected to bear the bulk of the cost, the Swiss government is still spending around 35 million Swiss francs to guard the event.

Among other things, the air force will assist the “air police” and conduct surveillance flights in the area. There is also close cooperation with Austria and Italy to “ensure the safety of the airspace”. The background is extensive protests from climate activists, among others, who last year protested against those in power in Davos with accusations of hypocrisy and lack of climate commitment.

Merz: Defiant EU nations could be hit with economic punishment

The globalist agenda

Merz at the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this year.

German Chancellor and former BlackRock executive Friedrich Merz is threatening to support a freeze on EU funding for Slovakia and Hungary if the countries continue to oppose EU leaders’ sanctions policy against Russia.

On Monday, Merz removed restrictions on Ukraine’s use of German long-range weapons deep inside Russia, a decision the Kremlin described as a “serious escalation”. Slovakia and Hungary have also taken a critical stance toward the West’s policy in the Ukraine war.

However, Merz does not appreciate the criticism and issued a clear warning to Bratislava and Budapest, stating that EU countries considered to be in breach of the rule of law could face infringement proceedings.

– Withdrawing European funds is always an option… If it is necessary, then we will deal with it, he added.

He also emphasized that “we cannot allow the decisions of the entire EU to depend on a small minority” and hinted that there could be “clearer words and possibly also harder conflicts” if the two countries do not change course.

“The end of democracy in Europe”

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán have long criticized EU leaders for prolonging the war with military and economic support for Kiev without any visible progress.

Fico, who survived an assassination attempt in May 2024, has taken a more neutral stance than his predecessors since coming to power in 2023. Under his leadership, Slovakia has reduced its military support for Ukraine and promised to veto new EU sanctions that could damage the country’s economy. Fico has also visited Moscow twice since December to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, which has sparked anger and criticism from both the EU and NATO.

The Slovak prime minister rejected Merz’s threat to withdraw funding and called the attack unacceptable.

– If someone wants to push a policy where only one opinion is allowed, that’s the end of democracy in Europe, he told reporters during a visit to Armenia on Tuesday.

“Not the path to unity and cooperation”

He argued that a policy where only one opinion is allowed is as dangerous for Europe as a third world war, and that German leaders must accept that not everyone shares their views.

Slovakia is not a little schoolchild that needs to be lectured. Slovakia’s sovereign positions do not stem from vanity, but are based on our national interests“, Fico stated, continuing:

When you hear such aggressive remarks, it feels like we are not heading into good times. The words of the German Chancellor are absolutely unacceptable in modern Europe. If we don’t obey, are we to be punished? This is not the path toward cohesion and cooperation”.

Pro-NATO candidate wins dramatic re-election in Romania

Nicusor Dan celebrates the election victory with his supporters.

Bucharest Mayor Nicusor Dan, an outspoken supporter of the EU and NATO, has won the Romanian presidential election after an intense and polarized campaign. With just over 54 percent of the vote, he defeated his national conservative challenger George Simion.

The re-election was held after Romania’s Constitutional Court annulled the original election last fall. The independent candidate Calin Georgescu initially led by a large margin, but the election was later declared invalid due to alleged Russian interference, accusations that have not yet been proven.

The ensuing political crisis has been described as the deepest in Romania in decades. George Simion (AUR), who has spoken out against further military support for Ukraine and suggested appointing Georgescu as prime minister, won the first round of the re-election with a clear lead.

Nicusor Dan, an independent centrist liberal with a strong EU profile and advocate for NATO, has received support from, among others, Moldovan President Maia Sandu and a majority of pro-EU leaders.

According to preliminary official results, Nicusor Dan has won with approximately 54 percent of the vote. George Simion congratulated his opponent and commented that the election “reflects the will of the Romanian people”, even though he had previously questioned the election process.

Nicusor Dan thanked his supporters for their “outstanding mobilization” and promised to work for a “united and honest Romania” with respect for the law and citizens’ rights.

Allegations of interference from both East and West

Allegations of an illegitimate election process and influence campaigns from both the West and the East have characterized the election campaign, contributing to a sense of mistrust and uncertainty among voters.

George Simion has also accused Moldovan authorities and media of conducting an illegal campaign to favor Dan among voters with dual Moldovan and Romanian citizenship, something Moldova has denied. At the same time, Romania’s security services have warned of Russian influence, particularly in connection with the disqualified candidate Georgescu, allegations that Moscow has rejected.

 

 

Telegram founder Pavel Durov also recently claimed that France had attempted to silence conservative voices in Romania ahead of the re-election by pressuring the platform to block political channels. Durov stated that they had refused and called the attempt a threat to freedom of speech.

Polish presidential candidate burns EU flag: “Down with Eurocommunism”

The globalist agenda

Grzegorz Braun has become world famous for his controversial and spectacular actions.

Grzegorz Braun, Polish presidential candidate and Member of the European Parliament, burned the EU flag outside the historic Wujek coal mine in Katowice last week.

The action, which was shared on social media, was carried out as a dramatic protest against what Braun calls the EU’s “bureaucratic tyranny” and “ideological occupation” of Poland.

In a video posted on Braun’s official channels, he is first seen tearing down an EU flag inside Poland’s Ministry of Industry in Katowice, wiping his shoes on it, and then setting it on fire outside the building. In the text accompanying the video, he wrote: “Down with Eurocommunism! This is Poland”.

– We will never in Poland exhibit signs against us of an enemy organization. This organization has led to the liquidation of Poland, such emblems are not surrounded by any protection of rights in Poland, he declared.

According to Braun, the flag burning is a symbol of resistance to the EU’s environmental policy, which he believes threatens Polish industry.

– This is Poland, not Brussels! We will not tolerate symbols of hostile structures, the politician shouted during the protest.

During a press conference, Braun argued that the EU is forcing political measures on Poles that are killing the country’s traditional industries and attempting to erase Poland’s national identity. The Wujek coal mine, a symbol of Polish labor and energy, was deliberately chosen as the setting to highlight the historical contrast with the EU’s climate agenda.

A controversial figure

Braun’s action is part of his Eurosceptic campaign ahead of the Polish presidential election, in which he continues to describe the EU as an “occupying power” and focuses particularly on attacking what he sees as supranational interference in national decisions. However, Braun only has between 1 and 3 percent of voter support in opinion polls, making his chances of becoming president highly unlikely.

The incident occurred after the European Parliament decided to lift his parliamentary immunity, allowing him to be prosecuted for an incident in December 2023. At that time, Braun used a fire extinguisher to extinguish Jewish Hanukkah candles in the Polish parliament – an act that attracted a great deal of attention.

– The people participating in the Satanic cult should be ashamed, he declared in connection with the incident.

The Nordic Times also drew attention to Braun earlier this year when, during the European Parliament’s annual memorial service for the victims of the Holocaust, he chose instead to focus on the ongoing genocide in Gaza, but was shortly thereafter escorted out of the chamber.

Klaus Schwab under investigation for corruption – by his own globalist organization

The globalist agenda

Schwab denies all allegations - and threatens to sue the board if they proceed with the investigation.

Members of the Board of Directors of the infamous World Economic Forum confirm the launch of a formal investigation against founder Klaus Schwab.

Whistleblowers accuse the globalist forum’s frontman of widespread corruption, including using the organization’s money for private cash withdrawals, massages, nights in luxury hotels and expensive trips abroad.

Yesterday, Schwab resigned with immediate effect after having led the powerful organization in Davos since 1971. The reason, reportedly, is a letter from a whistleblower raising alarm about serious financial and ethical misconduct – in which the 87-year-old and his wife are accused of systematically funding their exclusive private lifestyle with the organization’s donations.

For example, the Villa Mundi, located near the WEF headquarters in Geneva, was allegedly used privately by the Schwab family – even though it was purchased for the equivalent of €50 million of the organization’s money.

In addition to luxury consumption, Schwab is also said to treat his employees unacceptably – women close to him have reportedly been treated particularly badly.

The allegations have been deemed so serious that Schwab is now being investigated by the organization he himself once founded – and the board confirms that it has called in several legal experts for the purpose.

In a statement, the WEF says it “takes the allegations seriously” – but is careful to stress that these are as yet unproven and that it “will await the outcome of the investigation to comment further”.

Threatens to sue the board

Klaus Schwab himself denies all the allegations and claims they are completely unfounded. He claims that he has not misappropriated the forum’s assets at all and has also threatened to sue the board if they choose to proceed with the investigation.

In this context, it should be mentioned that Schwab is generally considered one of the world’s most high-profile globalists and technocrats – and The Nordic Times has over the years highlighted his activities in a series of articles.

He has often been recognized as a horror example of the international elite’s plans for the world – for example, when he proclaimed that his disciples are “penetrating the cabinets” of world’s governments or that “the fourth industrial revolution will lead to a fusion of our physical, digital and biological identities“.
