Agree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

The SP has a history of supporting international cooperation and European integration. They might be more open to the idea of a European military defense system as an alternative to increasing national military spending. However, Switzerland's neutrality and non-membership in the EU might make this option less appealing to some within the party.
