Extraits de l'audition
- Switzerland's "nuclear weapon" is its financial system; your "nukes" are your banks.
- Number one on my list of global security threats is poverty and growing inequality in wealth and food distribution.
- I am very glad that in the case of Iran diplomacy prevails. I must say that I'm pleased to see the role Switzerland currently plays. I do believe that the Swiss role may be critical.
- Switzerland can and should do part of the home work by itself. But the need for both a realistic and a cost-efficient approach suggests European cooperative security mechanisms are not ignored.
- A new security architecture for Europe should be developed. With its historic and cultural experience, Europe – and Switzerland in its heart – should establish its own collective security mechanism. Switzerland is a good place to hold negotiations about a new security architecture.
