She would not cut a good figure as a wrestler, joked the President of the Swiss Confederation. To do so, she would have to grow 30 cm and double her weight, she said in front of 56,500 spectators in the world's largest temporary arena.
Values such as mutual respect, esteem and camaraderie should also be increasingly represented in Switzerland outside of wrestling. "At the moment, it is particularly important to move closer together," said Keller-Sutter, referring to the country's foreign policy and economic challenges.
She went on to emphasize that Switzerland is reliable and predictable, that it abides by the law and acts democratically. "We stand for decency and respect and seek compromises."
