High-level discussions are anticipated during this prestigious event.

Additional attendees include U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Steve Witkoff, the special envoy to the Middle East, rounding out a comprehensive delegation that epitomizes U.S. leadership. Trump will make his presence felt in person this year, following his virtual participation the previous year.
