Bern, Jan 26 (Prensa Latina) With new messages and calls for multilateralism and cooperation as solutions to face the present economic crisis, generated by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Davos Forum continues on-line in session on Tuesday.
The 51st edition, which brings together leaders of several States and heads of various international organizations, takes place amid a panorama of existential threats, so the debates are focused on how to achieve an economic recovery after the current health crisis.
Considered as one of the major global economic events, the Davos Forum draws attention because it put aside the emergency in Wuhan, China, just one year ago, as it was not known yet that Covid-19 would paralyze the whole world, to focus on the globe's environmental challenges.
Some of the issues to debate will be the construction of a better future for work, sustainable development and for the use of the fourth industrial revolution technologies.
In the opening session, the Chinese President Xi Jinping called for building an open world economy, scrapping discriminatory standards, rules and exclusive systems, and removing barriers to trade, investment and technological exchanges.
The Spanish President Pedro Sánchez, on the other hand, harped on the need to create jobs and tackle down lasting reforms to improve the competitiveness of economies and the qualification of workers.
The UN Secretary-General António Guterres talked about the health crisis and its economic impact, and also asked to face the global environmental matters.
