Switzerland to Sell Leopard II Tanks to Germany for Stock Replenishment, Easing Swiss Neutrality Concerns

Switzerland has made the decision to sell a portion of its German-made Leopard II tanks back to Germany, providing a crucial boost to the latter's tank stocks, which were depleted due to aid provided to Ukraine. The move comes after Germany had requested Switzerland in February to consider the sale of some of the 96 Leopard II tanks stored in Swiss facilities to the tank manufacturer Rheinmetall AG.

Switzerland to Sell Leopard II Tanks to Germany for Stock Replenishment, Easing Swiss Neutrality Concerns

In compliance with Switzerland’s strict neutrality laws, Germany has assured Swiss authorities that the tanks will not be sent to Ukraine but will remain within Germany or be provided to a NATO or European Union ally.

Michel Fluegger, Germany’s ambassador to Switzerland, expressed his appreciation for Switzerland’s decision, highlighting the importance of these tanks for filling gaps in Germany’s military capabilities and those of its European partners.

Switzerland’s parliament approved the decommissioning of 25 Leopard II tanks, paving the way for their resale to Germany. This development comes amidst differing public opinions within Switzerland regarding the supply of weaponry to Ukraine, with Switzerland blocking re-exports to conflict zones to maintain its commitment to neutrality.

Requests from Germany, Denmark, and Spain to allow Swiss-made weaponry they had previously purchased to be sent to Ukraine were declined by Switzerland. Swiss neutrality laws strictly prohibit the direct or indirect provision of weapons to combatants in conflicts.

The sale of Swiss weapons may become complicated unless Swiss laws on war materials are adjusted to allow for such exports. Ambassador Fluegger emphasized the desire to support Ukraine by providing necessary systems and materials.

The Swiss cabinet is now expected to officially back the export of Leopard II tanks to Germany. Switzerland’s Defence Minister, Viola Amherd, asserted that supplying the tanks to Germany aligns with Swiss neutrality laws and is in the country’s interest. She emphasized that this move contributes to Europe’s security and directly enhances Switzerland’s security as well.
