The Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom, David Lammy, made his first official visit to Switzerland. Speaking on the fringes of the 78th Locarno Film Festival, he called Switzerland one of the UK's "closest and most valuable partners".
The partnership between the two countries is "a model of diplomacy", said Lammy. As in the 1920s, when the Locarno Peace Conference took place, this time is also characterized by a "search for clarity, strength and conviction".
We are in a "post-human" era and society is being recreated, said the Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom in Locarno. "If we act together, we can change the times," he said with conviction.
