[Swiss] Govt Looks to Ban Nazi Symbols

WRS/SWISS RADIO IN ENGLISH: The government wants to ban the public display of Nazi symbols, including swastikas, Hitler salutes and SS insignia.

Under the proposals, offenders would face an on-the-spot fine of CHF 200, even if the symbols are displayed without any propaganda intent.

The Federal Council says current laws leave a gap by only punishing such symbols when used for propaganda. » | WRS | Monday, June 22, 2026
