The government in the neighboring country would sell 25 “Leopard 2” tanks to Germany. They could fill gaps left by arms deliveries to Ukraine. But Parliament must also agree – and that is anything but certain.
Will that be the liberation? Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Switzerland has had a bad image in Europe. Especially because she doesn’t want to be involved in arms deliveries to Kiev – not even indirectly. In the past year, Bern has always turned down requests from Germany, Denmark and Spain to be allowed to pass on Swiss-made armaments to Ukraine. Such a transfer violates Swiss neutrality, it said.
