"Optimistic Forecast": Macron negotiates with Switzerland on weapons re -export for the Armed Forces
Macron emphasized his respect for the neutral status of Switzerland and, at the same time, to her clear diplomatic position in support of Ukraine. "As for the existing debate, it is not about export, but the re -export, and France is open to such cooperation," he said during a joint press conference with the participation of Swiss President, Alena Berce, answering journalists' questions.
Macron made an optimistic forecast for current negotiations, noting that they, in his opinion, would allow Switzerland's neutrality with its possibility of re -export of weapons. "It (support of Ukraine, ed. ) Should not weaken, despite other conflicts, in particular in the Middle East. As we have long recognized, Russia should not win in this war," Macron stated. We will remind, on August 22 it was reported that Switzerland is investigating the attempt to sell 100 tanks Leopard.
