Doris Leuthard is a Swiss politician and lawyer. Since 1 August 2006, she has been a member of the Swiss Federal Council, and was elected as Swiss President for two annual terms 2010 and 2017.[1][2]

Mediator

In September 2017, President Leuthard offered to play a role behind the curtain to facilitate dialogue between North Korea, the United States and South Korea in the escalating nuclear weapons crisis:

“I think it really is time for dialogue,” Leuthard told a news conference in Bern. “We are ready to offer our role for good services as a mediator. I think in the upcoming weeks a lot will depend on how the US and China can have an influence in this crisis. That’s why I think Switzerland and Sweden can have a role behind the curtain.” She said “sanctions did not change many things” and part of the task now is to find a location for countries to meet. “I think that’s our role to look at what kind of possibilities we find. Because, well, Twitter won’t be an adequate instrument ... This must be very discreet,” she said in reference to President Trump’s warnings that often issue via the social media platform.[3]

Political career

From 1 August 2006 to 31 October 2010 Doris Leuthard was head of the Federal Department of Economic Affairs, and on 1 November 2010 she became head of the Federal Department of Environment, Transport, Energy and Communications.[4]

She was elected President of Switzerland for 2010, and on 7 December 2016 for 2017.[5]

Representing the canton Aargau, Doris Leuthard was a member of the Swiss National Council from 1999 to 2006, and was President of the Christian Democratic People's Party (CVP/PDC) between 2004 and 2006.[6]
