Europe Division

The Europe Division is the centre of expertise for the Confederation's EU policy. It analyses EU integration policy and its impact on Switzerland. It coordinates the EU policy of the Federal Council in cooperation with relevant offices and provides information about Swiss EU policy and European integration in general.

The division defines the foreign policy guidelines for Switzerland’s relations with its neighbours and all other Western and Central European states. In implementing Switzerland’s policy on relations with its neighbours, it also takes into account various aspects of cross-border relations and supports, among other things, the cantons in the area of cross-border cooperation.
