According to him, Switzerland plays a special role in the world. Its credibility as a neutral country should be questioned if Swiss weapons are re-exported to the war zone, Berset said in an interview with the RTS television and radio company.

The President stressed that Switzerland must remain committed to its principles. Now is not the time to change the rules for arms exports.

The parliamentary commission approved amendments that allow the re-export of weapons produced in the country to Ukraine. Deputies and senators will have to vote on whether or not to accept the amendment to the law.
