Bravo to him! He is a real person, not a puppet.

He is laughing at the bureaucratic terms he has to use... as any normal person would laugh at.

[jonastrex05]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA xDXDXDXD

[DillanReed]

My opinion! Iran and Nord Korea are placed for injustice with these sanctions Big protest I recommend changing in FN securety council Four more Nations as a permanent members IRAN LYBIA SYRIEN BRAZIL mar kjartansson 24t blog Mingler.dk

[pahlevi]

He laughs of the impenetrable jargon of the bureaucrat responisble for the answer and of the triviality of the question posed by the congressman

[pahlevi]

the minister responded to a question by a member of parlament about possible abuses in meat import, in which importers had allegedly found a loophole in the tariff lawswhere spiced meat is lower taxed than simple, raw meat. it was supposed that they would spread peppercorn on the meat surface and washing it out after customs control. The minister had tried to explain that the norms already take on that possiblility

[pahlevi]

the translation read it more or less so:

in reference to addition 6a in capter 2 of the KN, the customs administration has additionally published the so called Swiss comments about the customs tariff.

ccording to that, certain products, that have spices added during the production, are added to chapter 2, if the character of a product of this chapter ist not changed (for example "Bündnerfleisch").

[muinrofilac]

[Dvidflip]

[gianpaga11]

Lieber und sehr sympatischer Bundesrat. Das ist ein wirkliches Meisterstück!!!!!

[number4cat1]

At 1:49 he makes a hand gesture, moving his forefinger away from his eye. What does that mean, if anything?

[Creeeeemi]

@number4cat1 while he's doing that he says "which are detectable with the naked eye" he justs underlines that sentence with that gesture

[2009amj]

@number4cat1 He's gesturing to his eye as he says "visible to the naked eye".

[Asovito]

Chavez does that all the time.

[gerardriiba]

amazing! :D

[DorotkaWHITE]

hahahha- I dunno what is he talking about .... but I curl up with laughter ... with him, rotfl

[Leannlac10]

jajajajaja Adoro este video! Es buenisimo darle un toque de humor a la politica seria 

[Moliipop]

que idiota O_O

[swisswatching]

Yesterday Herr Merz came into Stauffacher, the Bern bookshop where I work. It was quite hard to stop myself from saying Bündnerfleisch :-) At least the welcome smile I gave him was completely genuine.

[41553609]

hahahaha!!! wenisimoo!!! =3

[caldas001]

Estaba refumado Bundesrat Merz... Un genio cuando dice ¿Pero de que estoy hablando? que en criollo seria "¿Pero de que mierda estoy hablando?"

Jajajajaja... no paro de reirme.

[saramcloud]

xD way too funny xD

[silmarmica]

en español dice: “Atendiendo al punto A, del Capítulo 2B, respecto al parágrafo C, la Administración es responsable del párrafo tercero sobre lo expuesto en el apartado segundo...”. Por fin interrumpió su discurso y se preguntó a sí mismo: "¿pero de qué estoy hablando?”. A partir de ese momento, el ministro comenzó a reírse, y le siguieron todos los diputados presentes en la sala"

[Pablopnp]

jajajjaja, so nice =)

[jesuwana]

No tengo la menor idea de lo que estaba diciendo este señor, pero se contagia la payasa.

[ponygtx]

Goooooo Merz

Zeigs dene Affä!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Esclavier]

Fijo que se ríe de Zapatero y sus lecciones de economía xd

[pablitomatraco]

Que distinto sería el mundo si gobernase gente con ese sentido del humor.

[isastevem]

If all leaders could actually sometimes show this side of themselves, politics would be taken a little more seriously. No argument that there are some very serious issues in the world facing us, but to see this video is so refreshing and a major 2 thumbs up!

Love from Canada

EINFACH HERRLICH!!!

[cakon27]

In Anlehnung an Anmerkung 6a zum Kapitel 2 der KN hat die Zollverwaltung zusätzlich sogenannte Schweizerische Erläuterungen zum Zolltarif publiziert. Danach werden gewisse Erzeugnisse noch im Kapitel 2 eingereiht, denen bei der Herstellung Würzstoffe zugesetzt worden sind, sofern dadurch der Charakter einer Ware dieses Kapitels nicht verändert wird (z. B. Bündnerfleisch). Ausgeschlossen von diesem Kapitel bleibt hingegen Fleisch, bei dem die Würzstoffe auf allen Flächen des Erzeugnisses verteilt

[MsDinozavr]

Infectious laugh!!!

[cakon27]

Super-sympathisch, man muss einfach mitlachen, es steckt regelrecht an - selbst für diesen Polit-Profi ist der vorgetragene Mist offensichtlich völlig unverständlich. Wohl dem Staat, der solche Probleme hat ...

[jorgeambl]

Did I hear "Spanish government and Zapatero" while he was laughing??

[lelaji]

This is what the world needs! MORE JOY & LAUGHTER, LESS FEAR!

[jgrabner]

@DeathGnom the thing is that they gave him "Bündnerfleisch" as an example for import duties but "Bündnerfleisch" ist only allowed to be produced domestically, therefore it can never happen that "Bündnerfleisch" gets imported.

ech lach mer de arsch ab :D

Please thumbs up, so everyone can read it! Thanks

[mf2101]

@DeathGnom Thanks so much now I know why it was so funny. Bureaucratic gobbledygook!

[thatumoraes]

@DeathGnom thanks a lot!

[SuperDanielle9]

can someone please translate what is so funny!

[DeathGnom]

@SuperDanielle9 He's is reading a new law. And it's written very complicated. And it is written so complicated, that he must laught.

"Bündnerfleisch" is a special meat from Swirtzerland.

[mytrijeki]

Congratulations Mr. Merz! I've never ever seen a Swiss to laugh that spontaneously and uncontrolled i.e. natural. May be you should do it more often and give courses your fellow citizens...

[kronos92bluewin]

@mytrijeki He' leaving :P

[RozaliaJr]

LOL Honest, human, contagious! Loved it!

[GHENCEA14]

It's a very human thing. Once you start laughing it's hard to stop :) Very funny moment. Thanx to internet the whole world can enjoy such moments.

[Mazen1hz]

I die to know what he was laughing about!!! O.O

[o0jules0o]

@Mazen1hz Well he is one of the most influential politicians in Switzerland, and then he had to read out a new law about meat regulations in terms of how much spice is on the meat and how it is spread. Basically, he laughed at how complicated a silly law like that can be phrased and that he had to read it out... and he cracked up at Bündnerfleisch which is a traditional swiss meat, he was obviously amused at the depth of this new "law"... :)

[industrialm]

@o0jules0o its seems that switzerland its kind of perfect :)

[daborgdorff]

Additional for (German/Swiss-dialect) difference from speaking to writing: .. sgn. Schweizerischen "Erläuterungen" translated with "Comments" (from *Anmerkungen*) but not relief or ease ... Same for "PindarFleisch" = pindacoloured or BündnerFleisch = Swissregional (from Graubunderland) ... for this sort or kind of associations.

[daborgdorff]

The crux: he tried to speak "... hat die Zollverwaltung zusätzlich ..[..!;-)!..].. sogenannte Sweicherische Erlei(ch)terungen zum Zolltariff publiciert ..." (und weiter/further on) "... zum Beispiel Pindafleisch. Ausgeslossen von diesem Kapitel bleibt, &soon. Starting with this "quintessence" of Erlei/terungen = e.g.: easing or unburden by (en)light(n)ing vs. Erleichtern = relief e.g. by stool(s) or else, so this text could be understandable within (certain:) tri/double-meaning in ambiguity.

[777horus]

PART TOW

But, excluded from this chapter remains meat

on which the spices are distributed on all surfaces of the product and can be seen with naked eyes.

[777horus]

I'm German, I try to translate first part with regard to chapter 2 of the „KN“ the customs administration has also published the so-called „Swiss Explanation of the rate of Customs“ …... „the rate of Customs“. Accorting to this Certain products are still classified in chapter 2 if those products were be added spices during its Production process. but only if the character to a product of this chapter is not changed. in parentheses „B B „….. …. "Buen" meat …........ …...

[musclexboy]

What a nice man is Mr Merz :)

What he does is unbelievable but so human :)

I envy people of Switzerland.

[biytc78]

Funniest thing ever!

[Nitsirkatsa]

hahaha:D

[janiceyt]

That's awesome I don't understand what he's saying but I'm still laughing, that's how all political leaders should be - maybe we'd have less war.

[RozaliaJr]

LOL Human, real, infectious, honest. Love him!

[HaykazBagrat]

hey everyone. i don't understand. can anyone translate his speech into english please. what is he laughing at?

[Sim37K]

@HaykazBagrat He is reading a police report on the import dried meat, and the report is written in a way as to be comical. He laughs, because the police report is full of numbers, measures, and technical data, and it is not very understandable, but only speaks of dried meat !!

[HaykazBagrat]

@Sim37K  oh, thank you very much

[MeesWaxed]

weed is awesome

[jts024]

[lNSPIRATI0Nx3]

[jenson808]

Would someone make a subtitle in English? :)

[youfick]

lachnummer bis am schluss

[Fl4dd3rm0uz]

@TheSomebody188 he is talking about new taxes that will be introduced for a special kind of meat called "bündnerfleisch" and then there's a description how bündnerfleisch is to be distinguished from all the other meat - which is by the way it is spiced

[veokfwjbotgwr]

sehr sympathisch :)

[naarden78]

Finally a swiss guy who CAN laugh! Normally they're so f**king serious and boring (swiss people)

[TheJanIneXD]

@naarden78 pfff du huerrä schafseckel ... :)

[TheOtherDude1963]

Herrlich, endlich mal ein sympathischer Politiker. Leider die Ausnahme :-)

[frexellful]

SEARCH"完全失控的天气预报员"

YOU WILL BE ALSO LAUHG!

VERY FUNNY!

[frexellful]

他有什么觉得好笑的啊？

不过是个可爱的老头！有点意思！

堪比那个德国天气预报员！



[1LaneOnly]

So is the Hash legal now in Switzerland ?

LoL..........

[Micela1]

er chunnt richtig sympathish übre.. :)

[adork837]

[swissbrr]

He's talking about a change in law concerning the export of Swiss meat.

[volcomsandro]

swissman :)

[brainstorrming]

Укатайка, однозначно - вот что такое швейцарские налоги.

[Rustamislamov]

really cute smile, can't stop laughing with him.... :D

[Kujta73]

lachen ist gesund, hahahahahahahahahaha

[trilingual28]

I love this man! What a cute smile and infectious laugh!

[gabswiss]

He start laughing when citing a section (article) of the law about meat import.It sound like he got the numbers mixed up and start laughing from there.Probably since it's a so complicated law code for some imported Sausages...(Code Number 6A Article 2 KM...)

He later admitted he didn't understand the numbers either.

[Cubeculture]

Can you imagine what the reaction would be if an American politician did this? Makes me jealous of Swiss politics.

[zschiegner]

@Cubeculture

thanks, very kind of you

max / switzerland

[riesbergen]

@Cubeculture America has Clinton and Jeltsin as great hero example.

[lasktguy]

I have no idea what he's saying but it's great that someone can keep their sense of humor like that.

[AnimeSage285]

I was just watching this on Telegraph news. I had to laugh and shared this with my buddies!

[barzan1977]

NEW ALIG in da house

[Johann027]

Yoschillen. Are you really this big a pretentious snob, or did I just catch you in a particularly uppity mood? For the record him saying something sexual is not the only thing that I could laugh about. Look, when you talk about meat there is plenty of room for sexual innuendo. If you're head wasn't stuck so far up your ass, you would clearly see that.

[ik9482]

Long live the Swiss!

[naganorisama]

Swedish news picked up on this one too. :D

[connordaguy]

probably talking about irelands finances

[DJBigMD]

@connordaguy

even whorse!!

hees talking about food.

[77CanonRummel77]

good video lol

[harviej]

Even in English I can tell two things. Swiss lawyers are verbose. He counts, but does not read well

[EvelienMetalGirl666]

Awesome :')

[topbloke1UK]

Brilliant! It's great to hear Swiss people laughing! I've lived here 4 years and it's a first for me.

[nonchablunt]

@topbloke1UK

zurich is not the same as switzerland.

[rock3tcat]

He's explaining how the Swiss are the biggest joke on earth. :D

[NEEEEEEM]

omg what is he talking about ????

lololol

i love him

[1993heavenshallburn]

@NEEEEEEM he's talking about some stupid law about meat, in that case a special meat.

[TheStepanov]

I want to see the same minister in our russian goverment ))) Sure, our ecomony will be much more better!

[neilandrewporter]

this shit never happenned to Hitler.

[Flossie710]

@neilandrewporter -exactly

[rausibausi]

@neilandrewporter lol

[Johann027]

Can I get a serious translation. Being that the guy is talking about meat, I would guess that there are some sexual innuendos going on here.

[Flossie710]

@Johann027 ... in chapter two, to which condiments have been added in processing, provided that thus the character of the product of this chapter is not being changed ... (laughs) ... left paranthesis: for example B... B... (laughs intensly) ... for example 'Bündnerfleisch' (meat of Bündnerland, a region in Switzerland)."

this was translated by another poster down thread.Retorelinger?

Sexy, hunh? ;-)

[YoscHilein]

@Johann027 no nothing sexual its only funny for him to laugh about him self :)

i think its a bit sad that the only thing you could laugh about is if he would talk about somthing sexual..

[Saucepan007]

@YoscHilein It's natural to laugh at sex because our society is uncomfortable with things that are primal and pleasurable.

[YoscHilein]

@Saucepan007 yeh. but thats kind of sad

[rausibausi]

@Johann027 nope, why?

[test954]

Just saw it on russian news TV channel. They say that some meat products retailer already placed his laughing face on the meat packs. I think the Swiss vegetarian community will thin out after that. :)

[40kimbice]

A good laugh tones ur facial muscles, american politicians take heed!!

[PlusMinusN]

I just saw this in the Swedish news :) didn't understand what he was talking about but it was very funny haha!

[goodchessactor]

And the Americans made Obama president, hahahahaha!!

(that's what he;s saying)

[Drektjal]

@goodchessactor Your troll is too obvious. If your translation had been: "And the Americans made Bush president, hahahahaha!!", I would've bought it... :P

[cooperrec]

this is quite amusing and seemingly innocent, non offensive unplanned giggling -laughter. i had a similiar experience at work one day (healthcare) which did not go over so well with supervisors- but i notable giggling support from colleagues.

* I was wondering if someone could explain/interpret/translate the content of his speech that created his laughing moment. Sorry i do not speak German.

WE ALL NEED A GOOD LAUGH AND SMILE EACH DAY

peace all, stay healthy my friends

[Flossie710]

@cooperrec - Dude..I don't know where to start..Have you ever read Kafka? ;-)

[Mr3films]

Dit maakt politiek weer wat genietbaarder.

[harbory93]

so...that are we from switzerland!! GOO merz..schad nüm bundesrat :(

[RolandRhodes1]

He is just talking about why it is always so easy to invade France

[radaernimano]

I never laughed so much thanks

[XFactorHater]

Also, try typing "short sea shipping" in the search bar. Hilarious clip of a UK MP "corpsing".

Good thing Merz's legislature period was not a joke and his initiatives not motivated by criminal big business and cold, sterile, Bahnhofsstarsse banksters.
