Since the outbreak of the war, people from Ukraine have sought protection from the conflict in Western Europe. Switzerland has shown its solidarity by activating the Protection Status S for the first time. This allows people from Ukraine to be granted protection quickly and without any complex procedures. They obtain residence rights without having to go through the standard asylum process.

In the future Switzerland aims to use air passenger data to fight terrorism and other forms of serious crime more effectively. Comparing air passenger data with police information systems will make it more difficult for criminals to enter and leave Switzerland. The Federal Council is therefore drafting legislation on the processing of passenger name record data. The new legislation will contain strict data protection regulations.
