This is Switzerland so money should outweigh neutrality and they’ll make a boat load of money off this while quietly re-installing cold war era explosives on some bridges.
If they want to put bombs into their bridges: it’s their country.
I’m more concerned that they could indeed be included. I had hoped that the last fiasco with Swiss arms where Ukraine wasn’t allowed to by ammunition to defend themselves from being invaded, would put all Swiss arms on a big DO NOT BUY list.

Like they didn’t allow their ammo to be delivered to Ukraine. They seem to be an unreliable partner for Europe.
