Now the SVP is pulling various strings. The party leadership is investigating a criminal complaint against those responsible for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (EDA) of Ignazio Cassis (62), who negotiated the new EU deal in advance. The SVP Control Center’s Accusation: Betrayal!
If the agreement goes through, it would violate several articles of the federal constitution and be contrary to the interests of Switzerland, SVP state councilor and party leader Thomas Matter (57) is convinced in an interview with Blick. And again: “Anyone who negotiates such an agreement commits treason!”
The SVP mainly fears that immigration will increase again. And she absolutely wants to prevent that.
A thorn in the side of the party is the “broad approval of the Union Citizens Directive”. EU citizens would receive a settlement permit after five instead of ten years. Matter criticizes that they would be allowed to stay here even if they became unemployed or dependent on social security. “This is a blatant violation of our Constitution.”
Despite all the anger, will the SVP really go so far as to label Foreign Minister Cassis as a traitor? “Every official in the State Department who is responsible for the negotiations and who supports and even promotes this colonial treaty bears full responsibility,” Matter said. “The FDFA has mutated into a satellite from Brussels that represents the interests of the EU instead of Swiss interests.”
To put a stop to immigration, the SVP is also putting its so-called sustainability initiative to the vote. With this she wants to prevent a Switzerland of 10 million. At the latest when the limit of 9.5 million is exceeded, the Federal Council must take action – and, if necessary, end the free movement of people.
In any case, the SVP should have better chances of success. However, the chance of a criminal complaint against the EDA seems quite small. So it’s all just political saber-rattling? “Just wait and see. We are currently seriously investigating the legal situation,” says Matt.
