Few things to point out, i think the language is French, as that is also a UN language but don't quote me on that...

Switzerland, which i hold dual-citizenship with has as far back as modern politics go, been totally neutral on EVERYTHING, they are a member of no international bodies, have no alliances, or agreements, although i think they are signees on the Human Rights and Rights of the Child documents, but once again, don't quote me on that. This policy has led to tension occasionally, particularly over issues like Swiss banks holding Nazi loot from slaughtered Jews some of which still has not been released. Switzerland is fiercely protective of its own interests, every citizen between the ages of 18 and 45 has done compulsory military training and there are many secret Swiss bases hidden inside mountains capable of holding a very significant section of the population in a NBC (nuclear/biological/chemical) safe facilities.
