International Health Regulations (IHR)

Uphold the rule of law

Recognise WHO as an instrument of power and act accordingly

by Dr. med. Sabine Vuilleumier-Koch

(17 January 2025) The event organised by the “Swiss Standpoint” on 3/4 January 2025 with lic. iur. Jürg Vollenweider, former Senior Public Prosecutor in the Canton of Zurich,was met with great interest. His lecture more than met his objective: “We have to educate people about the new WHO regulations and their impact on our fundamental freedoms in their own language, so that they can understand the dangerous tendencies towards the expansion of uncontrolled power structures.” His stimulating, differentiated presentation informed and encouraged the audience to ask many questions and develop their own considerations.

Except a nuclear apocalypse would be unimaginably worse

by William J. Astore,* USA

(17 January 2025) (CH-S) The author warns emphatically against underestimating the power of nuclear weapons and calls for an end to their construction.

Switzerland

The Federal Council waves through framework agreements 2.0 with the EU

Is the Federal Council squandering its most precious asset?

  • Switzerland’s most precious asset is the voters’ trust in the federal government. The Federal Council is acting by waving through the framework agreements with the EU according to the principle “press on regardless”.
  • This agreement forces Switzerland to adopt laws “made in Brussels” unreflected – or to take into account sanctions. For the economy, this means preparing for more bureaucracy.
  • autonomiesuisse calls upon Parliament and people to save the Swiss success model, and upon the Federal Council to listen more to the citizens of Switzerland than to the bureaucrats in Brussels.

Karin Leukefeld sent us a brief report on the atmosphere from Damascus.
