ARTICLE LONG FORMAT, Clément Guntern | Contrairement à toute attente, l’Union européenne n’est pas sortie particulièrement affaiblie de la crise sanitaire.

ARTICLE LONG FORMAT, Clément Guntern | At the start of this new century, a new order is gradually taking hold: authoritarianism around the world is gaining in power, and the states claiming to be authoritarian are asserting themselves with increasing brutality. Russia and China are raising their voices and threatening reprisals against anyone who dares to criticize the state of democratic principles and human rights on their territory. While escalation with Russia remains measured, China is agitating, vituperating and sanctioning. For the time being, it is mainly on their own territories that these states are committing more and more crimes, but for powers with global ambitions, it is to be feared that this is an exportable model of governance. Democratic principles are now under direct threat. As a result, democratic states have a duty to respond firmly to authoritarian forces, while leaving the door open to collaboration.

Or, dès sa conception, cette voie était en réalité une impasse politique. Elle le reste aujourd’hui et s’explique par une série de mythes bien ancrés dans notre pays. Pour sortir de ce cul-de-sac, c’est au peuple suisse qu’il revient d’avoir enfin un projet européen. Un acte demandant courage et modestie et qui renforcerait notre identité nationale.
The year 2020, in addition to having seen a pandemic of immeasurable impact, has marked the return, or rather the rebirth, of a notion that was once thought to be obsolete, unsuitable and even dangerous: that of sovereignty. In the space of a few months, the issue has once again become central. But an anachronistic vocabulary tends to overshadow what is really at stake: not the withdrawal of nations into themselves, but the pursuit of balanced regulation of globalization.
