Due to Switzerland's position: The Bundestag has been called to view weapons supplies chains

Berne twice refused to hand over to Kiev ammunition for German installations Gepard, explaining it with a neutrality in war against Ukraine. Germany is said to be no longer dependent on this position. The Chairman of the Bundestag Committee on Defense Marie-Agnes Strak-Zimmerman called to review the ammunition supply chains through Switzerland's position about neutrality in the Russian Federation against Ukraine. About it writes the German edition of Die Zeit.

For the second time, Bern for the second time banned Germany to supply Swiss production ammunition to Ukraine for German anti -aircraft self -propelled installations (Armed Forces). The head of the committee criticized Switzerland's decision to refuse weapons re -export. According to Strak-Mmerman, Germany can no longer depend on the supply of Bern's position. "Germany can no longer addictive, as in the case of Swiss ammunition for the Gepard Armed Forces," the committee chairman commented.

According to her, Germany cannot feel safe. She stressed that if NATO's NATO country or other Member country is attacked and Switzerland refuses to put ammunition because of its "neutrality", it would be a serious problem. Bundesver is currently receiving ammunition from Switzerland for the Mantis system, Puma BMP, which is armed with Germany of Germany, as well as for Tornado and Eurofight fighters.

"Germany has to view immediately, if necessary to change or adjust the appropriate delivery routes when ordering ammunition. Reliability in this situation is extremely important," Tsimmerman added.
