    I'm surprised mountain israelites even decided to agree. Maybe the loss of the arms sales was more potential revenue loss than the bank vaults of the corrupt buttholes full of money and loot.

      everyone's agreed those bank vaults are the property of the bank now. except russia of course, but everyone else agrees their opinion doesn't matter and their foreign assets are fair game.

      The Swiss MIC has been screeching at the government since the Kyiv feint about this, and have lost several possible contracts on merit of not simply being invited. Wouldn't be surprised they put extra pressure on them.

      Literally the position on Friday:
      >Switzerland's government said on Friday it will not change its long-standing policy banning the transfer of Swiss-made arms to a third country despite growing pressure from European nations to export them to Ukraine.

      >Calls for Switzerland to break with centuries of tradition as a neutral state have been growing both internally and externally since Russia invaded Ukraine more than a year ago. In January, two parliamentary committees recommended that the rules be eased. However, the cabinet rejected the call following a meeting.

      >"The Federal Council is committed to the values of Swiss neutrality and will continue to work to ensure the benefits of neutrality are realised," it said in a statement. However, it said it would continue to monitor the debates and make a further statement "if necessary".
      https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/swiss-government-refuses-re-export-arms-ukraine-2023-03-10/

      The Swiss have been slowly abandoning the 'no questions asked' policy since the 90s which hurt organisations like the Italian mafia and then EU pressure essentially cracked open the books during the financial crisis. It's impossible to understate how much Swiss policy is directed by what the EU thinks it should do these days, its model of sovereignty just doesn't work after 1992.

      I suppose good news for Serbia, Cyprus and Hungary but the noose has been tightening for a long-time on shadow banking and nobody is going to risk the damage of EU-US sanctions.

    No, they still needs to be a referendum passed. I don't know the public opinion of Switzerland on the topic, but it's not a sure case

      But that's not what happened. What happened is that the two relevant comissions agreed to change KMG. Which will now led to a revised law being written and then later, possibly in a year, passed.

      No, it doesn't. There can be a referendum against changing the law, but the prcess itself does not require the population to sanction it.

      Oerlikon/Rheinmetall Air Defense is one of the leading companies in air defense technology. The main aspect is the delivery of ammunition for the Gepard.
      Another aspect is the Piranha APC which Denmark wants to deliver.

            More like they bought the original design lock stock and barrel, but now have developed it far beyond its origins.
            If they were part Swiss to any meaningful degree they would not have been sent to Ukraine.

              Gepard is also in Ukraine despite using Oerlikon cannons.
              Licenses aren't covered by the KMG.

        Switzerland was going to put themselves in an untenable national security position if they continued their homosexualry. They had no choice, if they hadn't, no one was going to do join projects with them since the Swiss could Veto future export. Basically eliminating future exports. No one would buy from them since they could, conceivably be cut off in the event of a war or unable to further export.

        This would have MASSIVELY driven up costs for Switzerland's military procurement and costs them hundreds of billions in export contracts. There were already articles that they had not been invited to compete in multiple bid for contracts as a result of their Ukraine position.

    That is a surprising step for the Swiss to take.

      Their military capability was threatened.
      Switzerland is a small country and needs to export weapons to keep their arms industry competitive. After they refused to allow Germany to give Ukraine their 35mm ammunition etc the Europeans decided it might be better not to buy Swiss equipment if they can't rely on it in case of a war.

      The Swiss are turbo autists can confirm, I have Swiss family.
      Literally no one on earth is more nationally arrogant than them, even the French. The Swiss are so above the French they no longer feel the need to tell you how superior Switzerland is, they simply laugh softly at everything in any other country like it’s the scribblings of a downie nephew
