Switzerland and the EU: Félicien Monnier VS Julien Rilliet

Switzerland and the EU: Félicien Monnier VS Julien Rilliet

The relationship between Switzerland and the European Union has never been worse. On that, our two debaters agree. But beyond that, their views are diametrically opposed. Félicien Monnier, a self-styled conservative and sovereignist, is a lawyer and has been President of the Ligue vaudoise since last year. Julien Rilliet, a member of the Socialist Party and the Mouvement européen suisse (NOMES), runs his own political consulting firm. Here are our ten questions to these two young observers of the French-speaking world, who are interested in the fate of Switzerland and the continent.
«Le Centre»: debate between two young centrists

«Le Centre»: debate between two young centrists

At the start of 2021, the Swiss political landscape undergoes a major turning point. The historic Christian Democratic Party (CVP) welcomes into its ranks the young Bourgeois Democratic Party (PBD). This merger, mainly in German-speaking Switzerland, is accompanied by a veritable earthquake as the party changes its name to Le Centre. Nathan Bender of the Jeunes démocrates-chrétiens (JDC) in French-speaking Valais and Sascha Zbinden of the Jeunes bourgeois-démocrates (JPBD) in Bern cross swords, sharing their visions and thoughts on this new party and the challenges it will face in the coming years.
