Strictly framed demonstrations, partially closed borders, forces of order mobilized: the G7, which will take place 15-17 June in Evian, revives the Franco-Swiss tensions with in background the still vivid memory of the overflows of 2003.
The next summit is held in the spa that borders Lake Geneva. In front of it, the Swiss authorities look grey and fear to pay the bill.
The summit, which will take place from 15 to 17 June, involves the Swiss authorities because of the transit of delegations through Geneva airport and a planned demonstration in the city. The crisis is intense on the Swiss side, where overflows had occurred in 2003 on the margins of a previous meeting.
There is growing resentment in Switzerland over the G7 summit in Évian, France, from June 15 to 17, because although the Alpine country will not be attending the meeting, it will have to bear a significant share of the security burden.
