The Swiss Parliament’s Defense Committee has voted to suspend the purchase of 22 Gripen E fighters and wants the government to provide additional information.
“We are putting the Gripen deal on hold until some important questions are answered and the definitive agreement is available,” Beat Flach, a lawmaker for the Green Liberal party and member of the committee, said on his Twitter account.
