Swiss Parliament Rejects European Court's Climate Ruling on Wednesday
Jun 12, 2024, 11:50 AM
On Wednesday, the Swiss parliament's lower house voted to reject a landmark ruling from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) that ordered Switzerland to take more action against global warming. The decision comes amid concerns that the ruling interferes with Swiss democracy. Lawmakers denounced the court's decision, with one calling it 'erroneous.' Several older women who brought the case looked on as the vote took place. This move could set a precedent for other nations to resist the influence of international courts.
