"migrant" doesn't automatically make them nonwhite. I classify "French, Italian, Swiss-German and 3 Romansh" as white.
Only anemic, Vitamin D-depleted Swiss are white. Some other sick Swiss are red, gray or yellowish. Healthy Swiss come in all colors from rosé to beige to all shades of brown to black, the same is true for immigrants to Switzerland.
Somehow you lost the term "ethnicity" in your answer and shifted the discussion to skin colour. Assuming this is a reference to the stupid American concept of "race" – please reconnect to reality!
Skin colour and genetic heritage are completely unrelated to ethnicity.
There are Bavarians with a skin type of Fitzgerald VI and Afroamericans with a skin type of Fitzgerald II.
Until the early 20^th century, the American idea of "white" refered to protestant germanic people only – Swiss French, Swiss Italian and Swiss Romansh people might be considered to be "white" by you, but were considered by Angloamericans to be as non-white as Irish or West Africans for the bigger part of Angloamerican history.
