Claim 7: “The main theme of this year’s EEF is "The Far East: Development for the Benefit of People."”

DISPUTED

One source lists the theme as 'The Far East: Development for the Benefit of People' for 2026, but the same source immediately follows by stating 'the theme of this year’s Forum is highly symbolic – The Far East: Cooperation for Peace and Prosperity', creating a contradiction within the evidence.
