For several years, civilian peace support has constituted a key area of Swiss foreign and security policy. This has translated into concrete political achievements of late. These successes should not, however, distort perceptions as to what Switzerland's peace policy is capable of achieving in the field of conflict resolution and in terms of enhancing the country's political standing. Unrealistic and excessive expectations will invariably lead to disappointments and contribute to an erosion of domestic political support.
