U.S.-made missiles for the Patriot air defense system manufactured for Switzerland are to be delivered to Ukraine despite contractual obligations, the Swiss outlet Blick reported on June 19, citing undisclosed sources.

According to Blick, Bern has an order totaling $340 million with Washington for the PAC-3 variant of the missile.

Sources told the outlet that the U.S. has decided to delay delivery to Switzerland and send them instead to Ukraine, which is in dire need of the weapons to protect against Russian aerial attacks.

Good! "Neutral" Switzerland doesn't deserve shit, if they're so "neutral" and no reason to choose a side then they have no need for Patriot missiles, especially when this neutral country is surrounded by powerful allies. If they get mad about it then America should just say "Annoying when a country dictates what weapons you can have even after purchase isn't it?"
