Report Highlights Controversial Activities Among Elites at World Economic Forum

CHSwitzerland|

A recent report from DailyMail has shed light on unexpected activities surrounding the World Economic Forum (WEF) held in Davos, Switzerland, from January 20-24, 2025. While the annual event is traditionally associated with significant discussions on global issues such as climate change and economic policies, the report indicates a surge in demand for escort services during the event.

According to the report, high-end escort agencies have noted an increase in bookings, with about 300 women and trans women reportedly engaged by attendees of the forum. This marks a significant rise from 170 bookings in the previous year. The report also highlights a shift towards higher confidentiality, with many attendees requiring non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) for their engagements.

Andreas Berger, a spokesperson for the escort agency Titt4tat, mentioned that this year witnessed more sex parties than previous years and pointed out that the nature of client requests has evolved, including a preference for specific sexual acts such as anal sex. Additionally, concerns were raised regarding potential violence against female escorts, especially among clients of high social standing.

The WEF, attracting around 3,000 leaders from various sectors, serves as a platform for influential discussions, but its association with such activities has sparked debate over the ethical implications and behaviors of global elites during the event. Overall, the report estimates that the financial impact of these activities during the WEF could total around 1 million CHF.

WHO Director-General Warns of Inevitable Next Pandemic

Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), issued a stark warning on April 10, 2025, stating that the next global pandemic is inevitable, possibly arriving as soon as tomorrow. This proclamation, made during a WHO meeting in Switzerland, highlights the pressing need for nations to prioritize pandemic preparedness in light of past crises, especially the COVID-19 pandemic, which officially claimed 7 million lives and had economic impacts costing $10 trillion. Dr. Ghebreyesus criticized governments for neglecting pandemic threats while they grapple with economic and geopolitical challenges. He stressed that the next outbreak could emerge without warning, regardless of ongoing global issues. To combat future pandemics effectively, Dr. Ghebreyesus advocated for a legally binding international agreement that would ensure collaborative preparedness and equitable access to resources for all countries.

WHO Chief Warns Next Pandemic is Inevitable, Urges Global Preparedness

The World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has stated that future pandemics are "not a theoretical risk but an epidemiological certainty." Speaking at a recent WHO meeting, he emphasized that the next global health crisis could occur imminently or within the next two decades, stressing the importance of preparedness. Ghebreyesus pointed out the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has officially claimed over 7 million lives, though estimates suggest the true toll may be as high as 20 million. He also highlighted the economic implications, stating that the pandemic resulted in losses exceeding $10 trillion globally. During the discussions, he advocated for the adoption of the WHO Pandemic Agreement, which aims to bolster international cooperation without undermining member states' sovereignty. "The agreement will strengthen national sovereignty and enhance global action," he noted, hoping for consensus among nations to advance the initiative. Preparedness, according to Ghebreyesus, is crucial as the world continues to navigate the aftermath of COVID-19.

Trump’s Tariff Policies Push WTO to Its Breaking Point

U.S. President Donald Trump's recent tariff proposals are threatening to plunge the World Trade Organization (WTO) into its most significant crisis since its inception in 1995, according to experts Jannik Belser and Benjamin Triebe. The Trump administration's plans to reassess all U.S. trade relations aim to counter perceived unfair practices with reciprocal tariffs, potentially undermining the multilateral trade framework established by 166 member countries. Experts warn that Trump's approach contradicts the WTO’s foundational principles, which promote non-discrimination and dispute resolution among members. The WTO was created to facilitate free trade and has struggled with internal dysfunctions for years. Its dispute resolution mechanism has been incapacitated due to U.S. blockades against appointing new judges, rendering the organization less effective, stated economist Ralph Ossa. Professor Joost Pauwelyn cautioned that Trump's tactics could trigger a domino effect that dismantles established multilateral trade regulations, leaving smaller nations particularly vulnerable. As tensions escalate, the future of the WTO and global trade stability hangs in the balance.
