Davos Open Forum 2010 - Yes We Can?

Description: www.weforum.org 30.01.2010 US President and Nobel Peace Laureate Barack Obama awoke high expectations with his slogan "Yes, we can!" After one year of presidency, it can be seen where President Obama has introduced political innovation and where he has not. To what extent has the impact of the financial and economic crisis been curbed in the US? What are the relations between the US and the Arab countries? To what extent has the international political situation on climate changed due to the new position of the US? Does the Nobel Prize favour or harm Obama's Administration? This session is co-organized with the Federation of Swiss Protestant Churches (SEK-FEPS). Susan M. Collins, Senator from Maine (Republican), USA Riz Khan, Anchor, Al Jazeera, USA Ulrike Lunacek, Member of the European Parliament, Speaker of the European Green Party Kenneth Roth, Executive Director, Human Rights Watch, USA; Global Agenda Council on Human Rights
