Ukrainian envoy presses Switzerland to greenlight arms deliveries

Switzerland “cannot be neutral” about Russia’s war on Ukraine and must allow weapons deliveries to Kyiv, according to the Ukrainian envoy in the country.

“Our country is fighting not only for its survival, but for all of Europe, for the free world,” Iryna Venediktova, Ukraine’s ambassador to Switzerland, said in an interview with SonntagsZeitung newspaper published on Sunday.

“For that, we need weapons, as many as possible – they will decide the fate of all of us,” she added.
