Switzerland has voted overwhelmingly to keep its neutrality flexible, rejecting a hard-right proposal to enshrine a stricter definition into the constitution by 70.1%.⁣
⁣
Opponents called the initiative 'pro-Russian.' Supporters said it protected Swiss sovereignty. Voters sided firmly with the status quo.⁣
⁣
'Switzerland was neutral yesterday, it will be neutral today and it will remain neutral,' said Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis.⁣
⁣
The vote was triggered by concern over Bern backing EU sanctions on Russia.⁣
