Kayser-Frutschi told the Keystone-SDA news agency on Wednesday that serving on the Federal Council would be an enormous commitment. She therefore wanted to examine the issue carefully and also discuss it in her personal environment.

However, the government councillor emphasized that she considers it an honour and recognition to be among the candidates for the Federal Council.
