Switzerland has no plans to allow the re-export of Swiss weapons supplied to Germany and Spain to Ukraine on the basis of its neutrality.
This was stated by President Alain Berset, RTS reports. He answered the question of whether Switzerland's government is ready to allow Germany and Spain to re-export Swiss weapons to Ukraine.
“We have held a stable position for a long time. Switzerland is a neutral country. It is a country of the Geneva Conventions that participates in the negotiations Process, status of the world that does not export weapons to conflict zones,” he said.
He explained that Bern had supplied weapons “to countries like Spain and Germany with clear rules for re-exports. “
Recall , that Switzerland also refused Germany the re-export of ammunition to Ukraine. Switzerland justifies this position with its status as a neutral country.
It was reported that after another refusal in November 2022, the German parliament called on the deputies to reconsider the logistics of supplying ammunition through Switzerland, which refuses to transport Gepard anti-aircraft gun rounds to Ukraine.
