Swiss cast ballots on right-wing’s bid to cap country’s population at 10 million
Swiss voters are deciding on a right-wing initiative to cap the country’s population at 10 million by 2050, backed by the Swiss People’s Party. Critics argue the proposal could harm economic sectors reliant on foreign labor and strain EU relations, while supporters claim it addresses strain on infrastructure and resources.
