Spain submits request to hand over Swiss guns to Kiev How many more scandals can it take? Things are getting tight for Berset

Spain wants permission from Switzerland to transfer two anti-aircraft guns to Ukraine. The State Secretariat of Economic Affairs (Seco) received such a request on Monday, a Seco spokesperson told the Keystone-SDA news agency on Tuesday.

The spokesman said Seco would investigate the request for two 35-millimeter anti-aircraft guns imported from Switzerland. At the same time, he stated that it would probably not be possible for Spain to agree to the transfer of Swiss war equipment to Ukraine.

In June 2022, the Swiss government decided not to allow the re-export of Swiss war material to Ukraine due to the principle of equal treatment under the Neutrality Act and the War Material Act. She motivated this by saying that under the War Materials Act she must refuse the export of war materials if the country of destination is involved in an international armed conflict. Russia and Ukraine have been embroiled in such a conflict since February 2022. (sda)
