Why Trump’s Presidency Could Bring Stability in Swiss-U.S. Relations
Thomas Borer is interviewed by Tages-Anzeiger about Donald Trump’s recent victory in the 2016 U.S. election. He maintains that Switzerland has historically enjoyed better relations with Republican presidents and predicts a more restrained U.S. foreign policy. He further suggests that Donald Trump’s greatest challenge will be American political and social divisions, while arguing that Switzerland is unlikely to deal with the same issues due to its direct democracy.
