We have to escape the idea that “neutrality” is by definition something good and desirable. It implies that there doesn’t exist a right and wrong which is both a dangerous mindset in international politics and unethical.
My own country (Sweden) has had similiar ideas historically. It might have been viable and strategically sound in something like WW1, but not in todays world.
The proponents of human rights, rule-based order and freedom/democracy has to add the force they have into the system.

EU should consider an embargo on Switzerland for their dealings with countries that threaten the Europe.
Switzerland benefits from Europe and abuses it at the same time. We need to be tougher on nations who oppose us.
