Summary
John Bolton, former US national security adviser, believes Switzerland should join NATO due to the changing geopolitical landscape.
He warns that Trump may abandon NATO and impose tariffs on European imports, potentially leading to a trade war.
Bolton emphasizes the importance of NATO for collective security and encourages European countries to increase their defense spending.
Bah. Who needs NATO when you have the world’s best pikemen?
Despite looking very silly, the Swiss Guard are pretty badass. They don’t just have pikes either.
This is inside their armory:
A bunch of old, outdated guns?
More seriously they most certainly have their Swiss Army service weapons (Sig 550s).
Come on, John…
Of course, you don’t see them smiling neither.
If Trump may abandon NATO, sounds like it wouldn’t be a good deal for Switzerland to join…
Alternatively Europe levies a security tax worth 2pct of Switzerland GDP.
