Well Davos this year has not be normal; no celebrities, no parties, it has changed. Now the Turkish leader has stated that he will never return because of a argument with Israeli President Peres.
Well Davos has been the location where rich countries have decided what kind of policies will occur around the world. Traditionally it has been only for the rich and powerful, and developed country leaders. But over time new members were invited to join. If a world leader states that Davos is not a place to come, it will affect how other look at this forum.
Now the bigger issue is that the leader of Turkey was so upset at an Israeli leader that they publicly showed their anger. Israel has three friends in the Middle East, Jordan, Egypt and Turkey. If one of those three is not your friend anymore, that spells trouble. This argument was over the Gaza War, but no matter what stance you have on the Gaza War this means trouble.
Turkey was working with Israel to create a peace tready between Israel and Syria. Where is that process going now. Israel is going to paint themselves into a corner shortly and it will not be a good thing for anybody.
