The future chairman of the German Christian Democratic Union (CDU), Friedrich Merz, warned that restricting Russia's access to the SWIFT system could be compared to an "atomic bomb" on the market for capital, goods and services. According to him, SWIFT "is better not to touch."
He expressed this opinion in an interview given by ZDF.
“I foresee a massive economic downturn for our economies too if something like this happens.
This would affect Russia, but it would also harm us, ”Merz said, recalling that Germany is a major exporter.
