The 1972 Bilderberg Meeting was the 21st such meeting and had participants from 14 European countries, the United States, Canada and "various international organisations".[1] It was chaired by Prince Bernhard and took place at the hotel La Reserve, Knokke, Belgium. As in the case of the 1971 Bilderberg, John Pesmazoglou of Greece was invited but could not attend since the Greek authorities denied him a passport. The 103 guests included 18 business executives, 28 politicians, 6 financiers, 11 editors/journalists and 8 academics. The next meeting was the 1973 Bilderberg.
