Description | A list of the known Cercle meetings. |
---|
Le Cercle Meetings are off the record, which presents a problem for the below list, which is very far from complete. The current schedule is believed to be twice yearly, but David Rockefeller states in hi autobiography that meetings were thrice yearly.[1]
History
Le Cercle was originally an exclusively European affair, but it later changed to alternate between Washington DC and Europe(or elsewhere).
