The so-called “Oberstenaffäre” (colonel’s affair) was a political scandal in Switzerland which erupted after details of a close cooperation between Swiss, German, and Austro-Hungarian military intelligence agencies emerged during World War I. Between 1915 and 1916, the affair evolved into one of the most serious internal political crises in Switzerland and influenced the course of Swiss neutrality.
