Neutral is relative. It was a hotbed of Nazi activity.

Was Sweden neutral in World War Two? America lost over 450 Soilders
bombing two ball bearing factories in Germany.Sweden (Volvo, the name
means. I Roll) started supplying ball bearings to Germany.How about
Switzerland? Switzerland was building anf repairing equipment for the
Allies and the Axis.

My guess is that Portugal,Turkey,Switzerland,Sweden all made enormous
profits during WWII. Spain and Ireland weren't as heavily involved as
far as trading with the Allies AND the Axis members. No wonder
Switzerland is so wealthy...
