But the Swiss are supposed to be neutral!
They're certainly not neutral about cashing in all those service fees, whoever is on the other end of them.
Also all the gold fillings that mysteriously appeared in the 40's
This neutrality applies to the state (the Swiss Confederation), not to its subjects. And it mostly boils down to "we won't send troops to either side".
"we will provide banking/loot storage services to both sides"
FTFY.
Thought to their credit they are trying to be slightly less amoral in recent years.
In practice, yes. Sadly a consequence of the above.
So they like the stash in Diablo huh
They'd be very neutral my ass if they weren't surrounded by democratic non-hostile states from which they steal through tax evasion. They benefit from the EU single market and open borders and contribute nothing.
Sounds like cassus belli if I ever saw one
YUROP intensifies
Closed borders and airspaces would be so funny. It's like a medieval siege on a country.
