"Switzerland will adopt all the sanctions that the European Union has imposed on Russian people and companies and freeze their assets to punish the invasion of Ukraine, the government said in a sharp deviation from the country's traditional neutrality. "We are in an extraordinary situation where extraordinary measures could be decided," President and Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis told a news conference in Bern on Monday, flanked by the finance, defence and justice ministers.
In view of Russia's military intervention in Ukraine, the Swiss cabinet decided to adopt the packages of sanctions the EU imposed on Feb. 23 and 25, the government said. Switzerland had tried to keep a tortuous balance between showing solidarity with the West and maintaining its traditional neutrality that it said could make it a potential mediator."
What do you think Biden threatened to do to Switzerland to make them join the side of the Dems; essentially joining with evil -- instead of joining with Putin and protecting Christian culture?? Once again Putin has masterfully exposed the weakness and hypocrisy of a country like Switzerland; who for years masqueraded around as being a neutral country....Putin's brilliant strategic mind finally exposed all of that.
Now the world is seeing how weak and desperate the Dems are to have to try to threaten a country like Switzerland to take a side because of how unpopular the American position is as it relates to Ukraine v. Russia. What should happen in Ukraine and what most of the world supports is that Putin retake Ukraine and execute Zelensky -- and Biden and the Dems, and fake ass Switzerland are powerless to stop them.
