How can a country like Switzerland make democracy more inclusive?

Hosted by: Bruno Kaufmann

US President Joe Biden has invited 112 countries to share the commitments and proposals for supporting democracy at the first “World Democracy Summit”. 

This has been harshly criticised by non-invited governments in countries like Russia and China, who has launched its very own “International Democracy Forum“.

Switzerland does have a constitutional provision to support democracy worldwide and has for the very first time formulated what this means (read more in the article below). Could the country be more outspoken?
