Martial Courtet, former Jura government minister: 'doing really well' six months after losing re-election
Six months after leaving Switzerland's Jura canton government, Martial Courtet reports feeling 'really well.' The former minister, who oversaw Education, Culture and Sports for a decade, describes his transition as relief rather than void. He regains free weekends and time with his children—freedoms denied during ten years in office. These remarks were gathered by Romaine Morard, head of the Switzerland desk at Le Temps, as part of a series about former elected officials' career transitions.
