Surely you jest?
Well, maybe not.
I would think to add some credence to their long history of neutrality.

They also have one of the highest guns per capita. That’s how they stay neutral.

My ex husband was /is in the Swiss Air Force. It’s pretty awesome. They take off from inside the mountains.

The Swiss have an Air Force?.... WHY?.. Swiss army knives are too small to carry surface to air missiles? Switzerland's neutrality isn't based on gold and watches, but on it being to invade. Their army, which has tanks (Leopard 2s have replaced that old PZls) and APCs, defends mountain passes. And these need air cover. Now, if they were building frigates on Lake Geneva, you might have a point.
I'm not happy about this because it is already hard enough to explain to ignorami that Sweden and Switzerland are different countries.
