On November 26th, the Swiss will vote in a referendum on the granting of economic aid to the new Memeber States of the EU. This aid would be spaced out over five years, reaching around 630 million euros. A recent poll revealed a drop of the 'yes' vote in French-speaking Switzerland. "Is this part of Switzerland, reputed to be more open than the Germanic and Italian-speaking parts, beginning to resemble its neighbours?", wonders Joelle Kuntz. "What is happening to French-speaking Switzerland and progressively becoming apparent in the arguments sounded in this referendum campaign, is mental cramping in its political and economic space that is too small.
