Swiss Seek European Arms Procurement Ties to Bolster Defense
The Swiss government is seeking closer collaboration with other European nations in defense procurement, following warnings by senior officials over the country's struggling arms industry.
As part of a new defense strategy announced on Friday, Switzerland aims to buy at least 30% of its arms from Europe. Swiss forces should also use the same weapon systems as their neighbors, or at least compatible ones, the government said in a statement.
