GENEVA - Switzerland again refused to transfer arms to Ukraine on Wednesday, this time rejecting the export of almost 100 Leopard 1 tanks belonging to state arms company RUAG.
“Such a sale would contravene the War Materiel Act and would result in a shift from Switzerland’s policy of neutrality,” it said. The landlocked country of 8.8 million people has a long-standing position of well-armed military neutrality.On June 1, the country’s lower house of parliament voted against a proposal that would have specifically authorised the transfer of Swiss-made arms to Ukraine.RUAG bought the used and non-operational Leopard 1 A5 tanks from an agency of the Italian Ministry of Defence in 2016.
