re: #69 Dr Lizardo

That’s gonna be a tough one as to what, if anything, Brussels can do about it. On the one hand, Switzerland is not in the EU per se; it maintains its long-standing neutrality. On the other hand, the agreements it signed with the EU back in 2002 will now likely have to be renegotiated, and that could prove testy.

It sounds like a tough situation for everybody. The Swiss are worried about being flooded with immigrants and the EU can’t afford to lose relations with the strong Swiss economy. Maybe the EU project was too ambitious. Maybe if they started off with a more exclusive club of stronger economies then they could slowly expand and absorb weaker ones. All the dead weight is a big problem for them.
