Switzerland’s planned return to the EU’s Erasmus student exchange programme by next year is now facing uncertainty.
The government says rejoining would restore full access to EU education networks, but parliament may not meet the deadline due to the size of wider EU negotiations.
Lawmakers are considering fast-tracking the funding separately, though concerns remain over costs and timing.
Officials insist hitting the deadline is still possible, but any further delays could push Switzerland’s return back by several years.
