On August 1, 2025, Switzerland marked its 734th Independence Day, a significant milestone celebrated nationwide.

During a brief video address, Swiss President highlighted the rapid changes occurring in the global landscape and expressed concerns over a resurgence of tensions reminiscent of post-World War eras.

The President articulated hope for Switzerland's resilience amidst ongoing trade disputes, particularly with the United States, indicating that negotiations continue.

In recent developments, a significant majority of Swiss citizens voted against recognizing the State of Palestine, reflecting the country's position on this geopolitical issue.
