The conclusions of EU member states on Switzerland, usually published every two years, have fallen off the radar in 2022 – reflecting the stasis in Bern-Brussels relations.

At a meeting of a working group of European Union (EU) states this week, conclusions on Switzerland were not even on the agenda, an EU diplomat told the Keystone-SDA news agency on Wednesday. The EU commission, as well as France, reportedly pushed to shelve the conclusions, despite efforts by the Czech EU presidency to finalise a draft by the end of the year.

The reasons were reportedly the lack of progress in ongoing talks between Bern on Brussels on how they will regulate their relations in future, after negotiations on a framework agreement broke down last year.
