#newsonleo #politics #economy #wef Klaus Schwab is reportedly stepping down from the post of executive chairman of World Economic Forum. 1/
2/ Schwab has been at the helm of the organisation since its founding in 1971 (as European Management Forum). During more than five decades, WEF (renamed in 1987) has grown into one of the world's most influential organisations.
3/ Much of WEF influence was built on regular conferences in Davos, Switzerland that began to attract top business, political and government leaders of the world, which gained the nickname "Davos people" or "Davos set".
4/ Schwab, however, recently became object of criticism and controversy, when WEF's ambitious agenda known as "Great Reset", promoted in June 2020 during COVID-19 crisis, began to be viewed as totalitarian, oppressive and anti-human.
5/ Schwab didn't help his cause by doubling down on his controversial proposals and even mimic physical appearance of Bond villain, thus adding fuel to conspiracy theories.
