The correct answer

  • For being neutral, the State serves as a refugee settlement

Why

Serving as a refugee camp does not constitute an advantage of Swiss neutrality. The true advantages are avoiding military alliances, managing external conflicts without direct participation, and hosting international organizations such as the Red Cross.

  • During periods of war, the State doesn’t choose allies and ends up unscathed
  • Being neutral, a State has the power of managing external conflicts without getting directly involved
  • For being neutral, the State serves as a refugee settlement
  • For being neutral, the State can serve as a headquarter for several international organizations
