| Blocher visited Turkey last October during which he announced that the legislation was incompatible with freedom of expression.
The comments were welcomed by Ankara but caused a storm of protest in Switzerland. | |

Yes, Blocher doesn't like the anti-racism laws in Switzerland - there's a surprise.
But just in case I'm missing something here - It seems to be that this is a Turkish politician, who lives in Turkey, with the comments occurring outside of Turkey. So what an earth does this matter have to do with the Swiss courts? Surely the turks could just tell Switzerland to butt out and mind their own business?
Surely this ranks up alongside with US courts making decisions about things outside the US? Or have I missed something?
