Switzerland's traditional permanent neutrality is undergoing a historic transformation, with the country adopting sanctions against Russia and moving closer to the European Union. Japanese commentary argues this shift is testing the 200-year-old financial model built on Swiss neutrality, raising questions about whether confidence in the franc as a safe-haven or 'escape currency' can survive as the country's political identity changes.

Why now: Russia sanctions and EU alignment are challenging the neutrality that underpins the Swiss franc's safe-haven status.
