Thousands Protest Trump During World Economic Forum in Davos

In Switzerland, thousands of protesters took to the streets of Zurich Tuesday to protest against the World Economic Forum in Davos and President Trump’s planned visit. Switzerland has deployed at least 5,000 soldiers and police to Davos. It’s also imposed a no-fly zone over the area. The protests came as U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin is slated to lead the Davos summit today. Trump is slated to arrive tomorrow, becoming the first U.S. president to attend Davos in two decades.
