It is interesting how the only two countries of federal tradition, the Swiss they United Statesare the only realities in which a merely defensive vision of foreign policy and the military protection system was developed.
Obviously the United States – which have become the first global power (and even before) – have almost always betrayed their original inspiration (even without ever losing a certain vocation to political isolationism); And even Switzerland in recent years has very “reinterpreted” its neutrality.

This data remains: The hypothesis of confining the defense to defense tasks is something proposable and understandable only in the countries of federal tradition. Where instead the roots are French and centralist, every speech of this kind is a useless preaching.
