EU to Review Swiss Ties after Immigration Vote

BBC: The European Union has said it will reassess ties with Switzerland after voters there backed plans to restrict migration from the EU.

The economic impact could be great since half of Switzerland's exports are to the EU, with Germany its biggest trading partner.
