Like many countries in Europe, Switzerland is taking preparatory measures for potential power shortages expected to take place in the forthcoming winter.
Jan Flückiger, the Secretary General of the Energy Directors’ Conference, cautioned that “internal security then becomes a problem” when energy shortages start kicking off. According to Tyler Durden of ZeroHedge, Flückiger argued that the federal government has not grasped the gravity of this matter.
While he was interviewed for a Swiss-German newspaper Blick, Fredy Fässler, the police chief of Switzerland’s St. Gallen canton, shockingly argued that people may take to the streets and start looting if Switzerland faces an energy crisis this winter.
“Imagine, you can no longer withdraw money at the ATM, you can no longer pay with the card in the store or refuel your tank at the gas station. Heating stops working. It’s cold. Streets go dark. It is conceivable that the population would rebel or that there would be looting,” he stated.
