Convention of the Alps
The TCS and the economic environments firmly oppose him to the contained regulations in the additional protocols of the Convention of the Alps and they refuse their ratification.
This refusal is motivated from the fact that, in the 9 protocols of the Convention, the social and economic aspects systematically come neglected to advantage of the environmental aspects.
Besides, the formulation open of the 9 protocols of the Convention and their evolutionary nature allow every interpretation loss of the economic and social development of the alpine (60% of the Swiss territory) regions..
The TCS underlines besides that the European union and Italy have not ratified any protocol of the Convention of the Alps and that don't have intention to ratify the protocol 'Transports.'
