Federal President Simonetta Sommaruga (59) does not want to celebrate her big birthday alone. On May 14, she turns 60 – and invites everyone who also celebrates her sixtieth on the same day.
–
Because of her position, she had no time to organize a big party with friends and relatives. Especially since May 14 is not a weekend. “That’s why she decided to have a small, personal celebration,” says her spokeswoman Géraldine Eicher. “A celebration without much fanfare, but with a lot of sympathy for other people.”

Hard goes on their own account
Sommaruga has published the birthday invitation on Instagram and Twitter. She is illustrated with a photo that shows the Federal President as a young girl. You can register for the celebration that is to take place in the Bern region on the website of your department.

As proof that you were actually born on the same day as the Federal President, interested parties must send a copy of their passport or ID. In addition, if you want to be there, you shouldn’t think too long. The number of guests is limited, it says on the website. So that the party really rises on a small scale, as the Sommaruga wishes.

The SP federal councilor, by the way, grabs the party from her own wallet, as her department emphasizes. “We only support them a little with the organization,” says spokeswoman Eicher.

Who knows, maybe Sommaruga’s husband Lukas Hartmann will travel to Switzerland for the celebration. The two have a long-distance relationship for the next few months, because the writer is moving to London for half a year, (LHA)
