Switzerland and Europe

Switzerland's foreign policy strategy 2020-2023 focuses amongst others on the consolidation and the development of the bilateral path with the European Union (EU). In this context, relations with the EU member states and in particular with Switzerland's neighbouring countries play a key role.
