The loss of republics in the Muslim elections in the United States is not expected to bring about improved relations between Switzerland and President Donald Trump’s administration.
That’s how the Swiss newspaper estimates Le TempsIn a published analysis.
The Democrats’ victory in both chambers of the U.S. Congress has been welcomed by the Green in Switzerland, which views the outcome as a signal against Trump’s policy.
Meanwhile, concerns about purchasing power and economic situation remain central issues in both the US and Switzerland, notes the right camp.
Despite the change in political balances in Washington, American customs policy towards Switzerland is not expected to change in the short term.
The democratic victory could make Trump difficult to implement some domestic initiatives, but does not rob the presidential competencies of foreign and trade policy.
For Switzerland, this means that trade disputes with the US and uncertainty about Swiss exporters will continue, despite the loss of Republicans in Congress.
According to the assessment of HINA Le Tempsı, changing the American parliamentary majority is no guarantee of a turn in bilateral relations, nor of easing the customs burden on Swiss products. /Telegraphy/
