Switzerland-EU agreements: the silent architecture of tutelage - what Paul Richli reveals

Sometimes there are articles that should trigger a country's intellectual state of emergency. Professor Paul Richli's interview in the NZZ am Sonntag is one of them. It's not a technical debate, it's not a legal nuance: it's a brutal observation. The Switzerland-EU agreements in the pipeline are not adjustments - they are redesigning our country's political architecture. If you still think that «Bilaterals III» means continuity, you really must read on. Because it's a leading constitutionalist who says so: these agreements are going to change Switzerland. And not in the way you think.
