@EUCommission that makes sense, but... why they don't just join the Union?

@uriel @EUCommission

Because they think that "neutrality" is a thing, or more to the point, because they are convinced that money is king.

Switzerland already receives and apply almost all the EU laws as it makes sense for the country. But you know, not needing to put money in the EU is what they care the most.

"Switzerland first", I guess.
