that’s not really what hapoened, they boight those weapons knowing the conditions that were attached to it. The swiss political context is complex, it’s not a matter of one side vs the other but of consensus between a lot of actors defending various interests. This is why in this case the swiss left has been trying for years to stop swiss exports of weapons of war, while the right and far-right pushed for it.
the swiss country is not a monolith. swiss politics caused this offer to be the result of a complicated consensus, not just “ludicrous conditions” emanating from a purely capitalist agent.
