    Swiss voters have delivered a decisive verdict in a referendum on how strictly the country should interpret its long-standing neutrality. The right-wing Swiss People's Party (SVP) had backed the proposal, arguing that Switzerland had drifted too close to the European Union and NATO, especially since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The outcome settles, for now, a debate over whether neutrality should limit cooperation with Western partners.
