Swiss voters block population cap initiative
Swiss voters rejected the proposal aimed at setting a maximum population limit of ten million before 2050, which raised concerns about potential negative impacts on the economy and relations with the European Union. The proposal targeted limiting immigration, as foreigners make up more than a quarter of the population, and would have halted immigration if approved. Estimates indicated that around 55% of voters opposed the initiative, which was seen as a threat to the country's stability and international relations.
