Liechtenstein Succession Reform: Liechtenstein has officially moved from male-only primogeniture to absolute primogeniture, meaning the first-born child can inherit the throne regardless of sex; the change was approved by the required two-thirds majority within the princely family and applies only to future descendants, leaving the current line at the top unchanged for now. EU Sanctions Alignment: EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas welcomed eight non-EU countries—including Liechtenstein—signalling commitment to EU restrictive measures against Belarus over its role in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, alongside similar alignment on Iran sanctions. Swiss Immigration Safeguards: Switzerland’s Council of States committee is pushing an immigration levy tied to EU/EFTA safeguard clauses in the next EU agreement package, with the idea that employers (and some family-reunification arrivals) could pay if the clause is triggered. Vatican Finance Appointment: Pope Leo XIV appointed Princess Gisela Bergmann of Liechtenstein to the Vatican’s Council for the Economy, expanding lay oversight of the Holy See’s budget and financial practices. Tibet Advocacy in Bern: Over 200 Tibetans and supporters gathered near Switzerland’s parliament, with Liechtenstein-linked organisers, calling on Switzerland and the UN to hold China accountable for human rights violations in Tibet.
