Swiss industrialist Blocher's firms sold to Russian defense amid neutrality push

Swiss politician Christoph Blocher, while promoting a neutrality initiative, faces allegations that Ems-Chemie subsidiaries sold products to Russian defense companies, per company and official documents. The claim is sourced from investigative reporting and is partially corroborated by documents, but the extent and current status of the sales remain unclear. This matters as it could undermine Blocher's political credibility and complicate Swiss neutrality discourse amid sanctions on Russia.
