Swiss conservatives affiliated with the Swiss People’s Party (SPP) opposed strengthening the federation’s ties with the European Union. The publication writes about this Blick.
Thus, the party responded to the country’s government developing a road map for establishing ties with the EU.
“Switzerland’s identity and independence are at stake. In the future, EU law will automatically apply in Switzerland. <..> We will have to pay billions of dollars to Brussels. And the Swiss people will not be allowed to say anything,” said SNP President Marco Chiesa, outlining the consequences of strengthening ties between Bern and Brussels.
According to Chiesa, the arbitration mechanism proposed to resolve disputes between the European Union and Switzerland will not save the country from losing its historical appearance. At the same time, he pointed out that due to the influx of immigrants from EU countries, especially Italy, there is a decrease in wages in the country and an increase in unemployment among the local population.
Before that the Swiss Senate asked The Council of Ministers will use the frozen assets of the Russian Federation.
Formerly Switzerland joined 13th sanctions package against Russia.
