Why does Switzerland need a maritime strategy? Lake Constance, Lake Geneva, Lake Lucerne – Switzerland has many lakes. But as a landlocked nation, surrounded by five other countries in the centre of Europe, it has no direct access to the sea. On 2 June 2023, the Federal Council adopted Switzerland’s Maritime Strategy 2023–27. The sustainability of marine ecosystems, the maritime economy and Swiss-flagged shipping are all important issues for Switzerland. Here’s why. https://lnkd.in/es8VuKzY Federal Department of Foreign Affairs FDFA About Switzerland, Presence Switzerland image: ©FDFA
