Only a third of foreigners have gained Swiss citizenship in the first three months of this year, compared to the same period last year.
Official statistics show that between January and March citizenship was earned by 9 thousand and 98 persons or 3 thousand and 80 people less than the first quarter of 2017.
It's not quite clear why these figures have marked such a big decline, but authorities believe it's more of a <x0-Lay temporary fight”, rather than a general trend, writes Swiss media.
Some changes in Switzerland's citizenship have been presented early in 2018, including the condition for standard language recognition.
Taking citizenship in Switzerland is a process that can take up to three years to complete.
