Swiss voters decisively rejected a popular initiative to enshrine stricter neutrality in the constitution, which would have prohibited sanctions against belligerent states and limited cooperation with NATO. This outcome, confirmed by multiple sources, maintains Switzerland's current flexible interpretation of neutrality, allowing for continued alignment with EU sanctions against Russia and existing defense cooperation. The rejection signals a clear endorsement of the status quo in Swiss foreign policy.
