Operation ''Tannenbaum'' (English: Operation ''Fir Tree'' or ''Christmas Tree''), known earlier as Operation ''Green'' ((ドイツ語:Unternehmen Grün)),〔Weinberg 2005, ''A World At Arms'', p. 174〕 was a planned but cancelled invasion of Switzerland by Nazi Germany during World War II. ==Background==
For tactical reasons Hitler made repeated assurances before the outbreak of the Second World War that Germany would respect Swiss neutrality in the event of a military conflict in Europe.〔Leitz, Christian (2000). ''Nazi Germany and Neutral Europe during the Second World War'', p. 14. Manchester University Press.〕 In February 1937, he announced that "at all times, whatever happens, we will respect the inviolability and neutrality of Switzerland" to the Swiss federal councillor Edmund Schulthess, reiterating this promise shortly before the Nazi invasion of Poland.〔 These were, however, purely political maneuvers intended to guarantee Switzerland's passiveness. Nazi Germany planned to end Switzerland's independence after it had defeated its main enemies on the continent first.〔
