SOUNDBITE (English) Borge Brende, World Economic Forum president: "There's no business as usual. Not in Davos either. This time it is sunny and no snow. But more important is that - we also see in the program and with the leaders - they're concentrating on very serious issues. It's the geopolitical issues that we are faced with, war in Ukraine, but also very difficult situations (in) many other places in the world. It is also climate change. It is also that the global growth is slowing and we have to avoid that this very weak recovery ends with a new recession because we have very limited ammunition to fight a new recession. And a new recession will lead to increased unemployment, increased poverty. So, so much is at stake." 13. Close of Brende's hands 14. SOUNDBITE (English) Borge Brende, World Economic Forum president: "We are of course worried that this will also spread to the west Balkans. And we know if west Balkans have crisis, the whole of Europe has a crisis." ASSOCIATED PRESS Davos, Switzerland – 22 May 2022 15. Wide of Ukraine House 16. Security at Ukraine House 17.
