Based Switzerland. That’s a steal
To be honest, they already have regulatory alignment on just about everything else. So I don’t see why people are thinking they got a steal.
The deal will also mean unfettered freedom of movement for Swiss nationals and for their EU counterparts to live and work in Switzerland —
What does it mean ? The end of working visa for EU citizens? I doubt. Can someone knowledgeable explain please ?
Is this a dangerous precedent for let’s say – the uk?
That’s lunch money for the mountain Germans.
let s go outside of ue and do the same for France.

Would be nice to get Switzerland as part of the mobile European roaming area. I guess they get a ton of money from people passing by, turning mobile Internet on and immediately paying 8 euros (happened to me a few years ago).
That’s a small price to pay. They should also pay for what it took to build such market, so now they can access it when it’s developed.
What is the takeaway lesson for the UK?
Plus they are a rule taker on all industrial and other standards, decided in Brussels.
But that is their choice, they value their independence. I am glad we can work things out this way.
I wonder if this will change the vehicle border controls between Switzerland / EU countries ? Can’t see anything in that article.
I don’t understand why we allow this for them we literally have them landlocked. 2months of embargo and airspace shutdown will make the swiss pray to join EU
Norway are gonna be pissed. They pay several times that with around half the population and half the GDP.
…if they had any sense they’d be knocking on Brussel’s door to renegotiate.
Now can they ditch that stupid highway vignette?
