The Executive Branch: Federal Council and Departments No other picture elicits as many comments and is interpreted as widely by the media as the official photograph of the national government – and this is certainly not surprising with this year’s photograph: the term The Executive B “dynamic” is used almost unanimously in every description. 34 e Branch: Federal Council and Departments 35 The Federal Council The Swiss Government consists of the seven members of the Federal Council who are elected by the United Federal Assembly for a four-year term. The President of the Swiss Confederation is elected for just one year and is regarded as Primus inter pares, or first among equals during that time. He or she chairs the sessions of the Federal Council and undertakes special ceremonial duties.

    16.009 Rapporto sulla politica estera 2015 del 13 gennaio 2016 Onorevoli presidenti e consiglieri, vi sottoponiamo, affinché ne prendiate atto, il rapporto sulla politica estera 2015. Gradite, onorevoli presidenti e consiglieri, l’espressione della nostra alta conside- razione. 13 gennaio 2016 In nome del Consiglio federale svizzero: Il presidente della Confederazione, Johann N. Schneider-Ammann Il cancelliere della Confederazione, Walter Thurnherr 2015-2490 469 Compendio Il rapporto sulla politica estera 2015 offre una panoramica della politica estera svizzera nell’anno in rassegna. Nella forma e nella struttura è conforme alla decisione del Consiglio federale del 2011 che conferisce al Dipartimento federale degli affari esteri (DFAE) il mandato di sottoporgli ogni anno un resoconto sulle attività di politica estera condotte dalla Svizzera. Conformemente al postulato della Commissione della politica estera del Consiglio degli Stati (06.3417), che chiedeva un compendio di tutti i rapporti concernenti la politica estera pubblicati periodicamente, il presente rapporto è inoltre completato da un allegato sulle attività della Svizzera nel Consiglio d’Europa. In adempimento della mozione 10.3212 Chiaro orientamento strategico della politi- ca estera, nel febbraio del 2012 il Consiglio federale ha adottato il rapporto sugli indirizzi strategici della politica estera per la legislatura (strategia di politica estera 2012–2015). Nel rapporto figurano gli indirizzi strategici seguenti: relazioni con gli Stati confinanti, rapporti con l’Unione europea (UE), stabilità in Europa e nel resto del mondo, partenariati strategici extraeuropei e governance globale. Una buona parte del rapporto sulla politica estera 2015 è strutturata in funzione di tali indirizzi e illustra le modalità con cui nell’anno in rassegna si è provveduto alla loro attua- zione.

  • Election De Didier Burkhalter Au Conseil Fédéral
    CHANCELLERIE D'ÉTAT BUREAU DE LA COMMUNICATION Didier Burkhalter élu conseiller fédéral Vives félicitations et fierté du Conseil d’Etat et du Conseil communal de Neuchâtel A la suite de l’élection du conseiller aux Etats libéral-radical neuchâtelois Didier Burkhalter au Conseil fédéral, le Conseil d’Etat et le Conseil communal de la Ville de Neuchâtel tiennent à lui adresser leurs plus vives félicitations et à lui témoigner leur fierté. L’élection de M. Didier Burkhalter à la plus haute charge de l’Etat fédéral permettra à notre canton d’être dignement représenté à Berne et de rayonner bien au-delà de ses frontières. Par ailleurs, les deux exécutifs sont convaincus que M. Didier Burkhalter contribuera, de par ses compétences à maintes reprises démontrées, au bon fonctionnement du collège gouvernemental. Avec l’élection de M. Didier Burkhalter, le canton compte un neuvième conseiller fédéral depuis l’instauration de la République en 1848. Une réception, organisée conjointement par le Canton, la Ville de Neuchâtel et les communes d’Hauterive, Saint-Blaise et La Tène, est prévue jeudi 24 septembre en l’honneur du nouveau conseiller fédéral. La population neuchâteloise est conviée à y prendre part activement en venant assister au cortège à l’Avenue du 1er mars dès 16 heures et à assister à la cérémonie officielle qui se déroulera aux Patinoires du Littoral. Le 24 septembre après-midi, les écoles du canton seront fermées afin que les enfants puissent également participer nombreux aux festivités.
