Die OSZE hat die Infos für die Medien in einer 32seitigen Broschüre publiziert (backup: mediahandbookosce (application/pdf, 4.204 KB) ). Noch vor Bundespräsident und OSZE-Vorsitzendem Burkhalter auf Seite 5 kommt darin auf Seite 3 der Kommerz zu Wort:

Auf den weiteren Seiten erfahren wir erstmals ein bisschen was über den Fahrplan des Anlasses:

• Am Donnerstagmorgen zwischen 07:20 und 07:50, noch vor Sonnenaufgang, treffen die 57 Aussenminister auf dem Messegelände ein.
• Um 13 Uhr speisen sie im Le Plaza.
• Um 20 Uhr gibt's Znacht in dr Saffre.

Gleichenabends um 19:30 Uhr sind die rund 1500 Delegationsmitglieder, NGO-Vertretenden und Journis ins Theater Basel eingeladen. Als "highlight of the event" treten auf: Das Ballet und das Top Secret Drum Corps. Und zum Znacht gibt's dort "Swiss national specialites". Fondue und Läckerli für alle?
