I think it's more to do with national sovereignty issues between France, the U.S. and Switzerland. Just because I understand it however, doesn't mean I agree with it. I don't think rights of national sovereignty surpass universal rights.. like the right not to be drugged and sodomised against one's express will.
The Franco-US thing is a bit odd; if the French had an issue with the US whisking away one of their citizens from a third-party country, I would be more concerned with the Swiss allowing it.
