The Swiss parliament has allowed arms and ammunition to be delivered to Ukraine. Allies can now provide more aid to repel Russian aggression

The two chambers of the Swiss parliament have approved the supply of arms, ammunition and equipment to Ukraine.

This is an unprecedented decision, as Switzerland has officially been a neutral country since 1815 and historically has not supported warring countries.

Here's What We Know

The Arms Act previously banned the transfer of arms and ammunition from Switzerland to third countries, but an amendment passed on May 12 will allow friendly states to support Ukraine with much-needed Swiss-made ammunition and equipment.
