European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced on Friday the conclusion of years-long negotations on a future cooperation agreement with Switzerland.
Von der Leyen described the agreement between the European Union and Switzerland as “historic” while speaking alongside Swiss President Viola Amherd at a press conference in Bern.
“In this challenging environment, where global power relations are constantly shifting, strong partnerships like ours are not just an advantage, they are a must,” von der Leyen said on X.
The agreement is designed to deepen and expand the EU-Switzerland relationship with multiple updates to existing bilateral deals on commerce and travel that changes to EU legislation left outdated.
