- Switzerland and Italy redrew their shared border in the Alps last week, forced by melting glaciers.
- In 2023, Italy and Switzerland had set up a commission to study climate impacts on glaciers and their subsequent effect on the border.
- Switzerland and Italy have agreed to changes along the landmarks of Plateau Rosa, the Carrel refuge, and the Gobba di Rollin.
- This is where the Zermatt region of Switzerland meets the Aosta valley of Italy.
- The region is home to several ski resorts that fuel the economy of both countries.
