In her view, the 39% tariffs imposed on Switzerland by the United States were a direct consequence of the economic model promoted by the political right. She also attacked Donald Trump,“who is leading the world into a crisis of globalisation”.
“When a crisis breaks out, it's an opportunity to transform our system to make us more resilient,” she added. According to Mazzone, Switzerland must invest in public services and care work, as well as in the energy transition, while developing global economic exchanges“that strengthen the countries of the South rather than plundering them”.

The politician also called on the authorities to take steps to combat feminicide.“Switzerland must finally make women's safety a priority”, she declared.
She proposed, among other measures, that women who are victims of violence should be able to find help quickly, protective measures and a place to take refuge with their children. The police and judiciary must have specialised departments, while“firearms, military or otherwise, have no place in the home”, the President pleaded.
