Swiss Politicians Seek to Cancel F-35 Deal Amid US Tariffs and Geopolitical Shifts

Swiss politicians are considering canceling an order of F-35A fighter jets from Lockheed Martin due to US tariffs imposed on the country. The deal, worth up to $9.1 billion, has been contentious in Switzerland, and the imposition of a 39% tariff rate has strengthened voices calling for the purchase to be reconsidered or withdrawn. Politicians from across parties are now backing proposals to halt the procurement project, citing concerns over the high cost and geopolitical realities.
