Swiss foreign policy has become more dynamic in the past decade. However, the latitude for a distinct foreign-policy profile has diminished in recent years. The country's EU policy has reached an impasse. If it is to preserve major national interests in an environment marked by economic crisis and growing multipolarity, Switzerland will have to identify priorities more clearly, take a more strategic approach, and improve coherence in its foreign policy. Further efforts to consolidate domestic support for the countrys peace policy are also needed.
