Quick Glance: SP Councilor Jositsch: Switzerland must resist climate ruling
  • SP Councilor Jositsch warns of the consequences of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) climate ruling. He considers the ruling dangerous and criticizes the court's interference in political decisions.

  • Jositsch emphasizes that the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) cannot be changed as it requires unanimity among all member states. He believes that the task of legal development lies with politics and warns against holding a single country responsible for global issues.

  • He criticizes the court for overriding the popular vote on CO2 legislation in Switzerland and stresses the importance of the court's acceptance. Jositsch warns of potential impacts of the ruling on the mood in future negotiations with the EU.

  • Jositsch sees the ruling as a dangerous precedent and calls for limiting the court's powers to the core content of human rights. He opposes Switzerland's withdrawal from the ECHR and instead advocates for a clear position within the Council of Europe.
