President Donald Trump addressed the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos on Jan. 26. In his much-anticipated speech, Trump defended his “America First” policies and said, “When the United States grows, so does the world.”

More than 3,000 business and political leaders from all around the world gathered in Davos this year. Trump is the second U.S. President to attend the WEF in person after President Bill Clinton.
