Ukraine will receive $5.5 billion from Switzerland for reconstruction

The Swiss parliamentary committee approved the allocation of 10.1 billion francs (over $11 billion) for its own security, in particular 5 billion francs (almost $5.5 billion) of which will go specifically to the reconstruction of Ukraine. The decision was supported by deputies from the center-left and center-right parties.
This is reported by Reuters.
The parliament's statement explains that aid to Ukraine is peace in Europe and a contribution to the security of Switzerland. However, right-wing parties oppose such support. Also, according to Reuters, the country is under pressure from its allies - they demand more aid to Ukraine.
For reference. As of the beginning of April, Switzerland allocated 3 billion francs (about $3.3 billion) to aid Ukraine. Subsequently, the Federal Council decided to allocate 5 billion francs to support the economic development and long-term reconstruction of Ukraine over the next 12 years.
So, Switzerland's support since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine can be estimated at at least $8.77 billion.
