U.S. President Trump is to speak to an international audience for the first time after returning into the White House with a speech and Q&A by video conference to the World Economic Forum’s annual event in Davos on Thursday.

The World Economic Forum, colloquially called "Davos" after the location at which it's hosted in the Swiss mountains, is a yearly meeting of elites.

Donald Trump will attend the WEF virtually, which is scheduled for next week. Three days after entering the White House, his appearance is expected to be the highlight of the annual elite gathering in the Swiss Alpine resort.
