On Day 1 of the World Economic Forum, True North was booted from the pavilion hosted by the Mohammed bin Salman Foundation, a Saudi foundation that partners with the WEF.
The Saudis demanded that we stop filming and show them our footage. We politely declined and did not turn over any footage.
As Andrew Lawton explains, the purpose of these pavilions is to showcase your country to the world so it’s rather odd that the Saudis don’t want True North viewers to know them better.
