Swiss voters reject population cap
The Swiss rejected a proposal that called for limiting the country's population to 10 million residents, with 45.2% of voters supporting it and 54.8% opposing. The initiative was submitted by the Conservative Right Party, which argued that immigration was causing problems with infrastructure and rising costs. Meanwhile, the left-wing viewed it as an attempt by opponents to protect the country's relationships with the European Union. Additionally, the Swiss approved increasing the length of civil service as an alternative to mandatory military service.
