Switzerland's neutrality status has been officially recognised by the International Community since November 7, 1815 On 20 March, the Federal Council examined the implications of applying the principle of neutrality to exports to the states involved in the Iran conflict. The export of war materiel to countries involved in the international armed conflict with Iran cannot be authorised for the duration of the conflict. Existing licences and exports of other goods will now be regularly reviewed by an interdepartmental group of experts, particularly with regard to their compatibility with neutrality.Switzerland Federal Government

As I once said on this Seun forum Switzerland has always been neutral in any war. Check first and second world wars |

Switzerland is one of the countries that has stuck to it's principle of neutrality over time... They are not hypocritical about it and nor are they two faced or do the opposite behind the scenes. Like some countries like US and France that can say one thing and do the opposite behind the scenes. Where they will frustrate you though is through their financial institutions and returning stolen loots by especially African leaders like the abacha loot. Overall though seems to be a balanced country in keeping the peace and avoiding wars. Also the headquarters of the red Cross! |

Switzerland usually maintains neutrality during wars. This specific decision has very minimal economic impact on the U.S. if any |

Take this: It has always been Switzerland's claim. But also take this: They have always been a victim of their "neutrality" claim. ![]() If they were near Iran, dem too for collect one nonchalant, anger-filled, non-aimed, non-precise, non-calibrated, missile. |

But this news go too sweet Nigerian Iranians eh. To them, this confirms that they have won the war. ![]() Let me tell you the story of the 1960s war between Israel and all the Arab states: There was very strong propaganda. The Arab states, led by Egypt, pumped the propaganda that "we are winning," so that they look tough to the outside world. Israel, too, on the other side, pumped propaganda, but surprisingly, their propaganda was that "we are losing." Their reason is so that America and other powers will not step in to help the Arabs since "they are winning" against Israel. Two propaganda, different reasons. The result was that Israel dealt with the Arab world so much that even America knew that God was with Israel! ![]() |

This war needs to stop before it grows into something bigger that will consume the whole world |

The very common sense thing to do. Only evil people with no morals will continue to sell weapons to TERRORISTS who will eventually use them to commit terrorism, murder, genocides and all kinds of evil. The seed Europe and USA planted in the middle east to disrupt peace and exploit the region will never germinate in peace. The whole Palestinian territories will be reclaimed sooner or later. NO PEACE FOR TERRORISTS. |

I hope all this things don't come back to hurt the world one day!!! ![]() When nations would become nonchalant to activities of terrorism and terror, so long as it doesn't affect your nation directly ![]() Na Ukraine I dey pity now.... |

Nwaikpe:Iran is not attacking anyone who is not allowing the US and Israel use their country to attack her. I guess you knew this but must show your bias still. |

Very good. I've said it that Trump came to this world to demystify USA. |

Switzerland and Austria have always enjoyed the benefits of neutrality. Something Ukraine could be enjoying but chose to sell its soul to the USA and now paying dearly for it. UAE, Dubai, Kuwait also sold their soul, they're now paying for it. South Korea and the Philippines may also be burnt if China decides to take Taiwan kinetically. It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal. - Buckley, William F. Jr., “Henry Kissinger Comes To Town,” Daily Record, Oct. 13, 1974, p. B2 |

Make them stay wherever pleases them.....I guess if Iran was shouting death to Switzerland and killing them with suicide bombings their reaction will be different |

insidelife22:What about the war in Ukraine? Are they neutral there too? |

War is raw, it is profitable to lose lives than build lives

Procashtips:Iran has exercised superb restraint in the face of continued and unwarranted aggression. They would come out the better. |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Nwaikpe: 5:48pm On Mar 20 |
Procashtips:So why is Iran not going for only the bases used? Why go for hotels, airports, and oil facilities? With the weakness that Iran has shown in these few days of the war, if any serious Arab state like Saudi Arabia or the UAE responds and declares full war with even ground troops on the Iranians, can they survive even 2 days? |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Procashtips(m): 5:48pm On Mar 20 |
Nwaikpe:So you're unaware that's what they've been doing? |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Procashtips(m): 5:49pm On Mar 20 |
Flangelo12:If they were the Zionist, most of the gulf countries would have been destroyed. They've been very humane in their response so far. |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Nwaikpe: 5:49pm On Mar 20 |
Procashtips:Of course I am aware that they have been going for hotels and oil facilities |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Nwaikpe: 5:50pm On Mar 20 |
Flangelo12: ![]() Restraint ke? Defeat restrained them, right? Pride surely comes before a fall. Just a few days back, they were screaming to be the "Middle East superpower" that can rub shoulders with Israel. Now, I pity them after this war. If dem mistakenly say piiimmm, even Kuwait will send in forces. |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Procashtips(m): 5:51pm On Mar 20 |
Nwaikpe:You want me to spell all these out for you? After they started attacking the bases, the US/Zionists moved theiir operations to hotels, Iran followed them there. As for oil facilities, same thing happened, theirs were attacked from these countries and Iran retaliated too. You can also decide to feign ignorance, I won't be surprised. |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Flangelo12: 5:52pm On Mar 20 |
Nwaikpe:The world has told Trump to eff off. Even his so-called Intelligence Community has denied him. |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Nwaikpe: 5:52pm On Mar 20 |
Procashtips:What did they move to hotel? Then how come Iran cannot tell us the name of even one IDF agent or soldier that they have taken down? ![]() |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Nwaikpe: 5:54pm On Mar 20 |
Flangelo12:Is that why they have cleared the entire leadership of the IRGC? Come on bro! ![]() |

Procashtips:When did Oman, Turkey etc ever helped US in any way or allowed their country used to attack?? |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Onewazobia(m): 5:55pm On Mar 20 |
BodyCount:Wow! Clap 👏🙀 for yourself, no peace for terrorist, you are absolutely right 👍 |
| Re: Switzerland Halts Weapons Export To US Over Iran War, Cites Neutrality Status by Procashtips(m): 5:56pm On Mar 20 |
QuinQQ:Oman and Turkey aren't being attacked by Iran according to their spokeman, he said those attacks are false flags just to draw these countries into the conflict by the Zionists. |
