Sunday: 3rd nationwide Swiss votes of 2021

• “Marriage for all” (same-sex marriage allowed)
• Increased tax on income from capital (Not sure Swissinfo’s right to say “capital gains”)

Support down for both. “Marriage” set to pass; “tax” to fail

The General Council (= all @wto members) meets on Tuesday and Wednesday, the last time before the summer break.

It is the top decision-making body below the (in normal times) biennial Ministerial Conference.

Some juicy items on the draft agenda: docs.wto.org/dol2fe/Pages/S…

1/10
Among items attracting attention, eg:

Item 4—Proposed #TRIPSwaiver on some intellectual property protection for #COVID19—status report & request for a decision to extend the discussion in the intellectual property (TRIPS) council.

See draft here: tradebetablog.wordpress.com/2021/05/25/wto…

2/10
Extending discussion of the #TRIPSwaiver should be a formality. Already agreed in lengthy debate in the TRIPS Council.

But in the past, members needed to underscore their positions politically by repeating their arguments in the General Council
