United Kingdom's shape of the demographic situation looks much better than Switzerlands and the majority of EU-member States as well. This presumably stems from immigration.
Whereas the UK is on her way to solve the demographic problem on her own, Switzerland will depend on the population of India, Philipines, Mexico, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Israel as well as SubSaharaAfrica.
All the other countries - mainly the European countries as well as Russia and China - are in the same shoe as Switzerland.
Some of the countries such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, Mexico mentioned to step in, already show a distinct trend towards European fertility ratios. Their age structures are about to change for the worse.
