Well, Switzerland decided with 57% of the votes to not allow more minaret constructions accounting for the first European country to do this. Lots of people thought the construction wouldn't be banished.
What will happen from now on? The party that favors these results, the rightwing Swiss People's Party and the ultra conservative Federal Democratic Union, say that Muslims should interact and integrate into society. What the religious people, 4.5% of the Swiss population, will say about it? On Sunday, after the voting results some went to manifest their rage in the gare Cornavin, in the center of Geneva. A few glasses were broken.
So, they will have to keep praying in the four existing minarets in Switzerland or in the 200 mosques and prayer rooms spread around here. Further requests to build minarets are pending.
