“Switzerland has reached an agreement on details of a free-trade pact with China and expects to sign a deal in coming months, the country’s economy minister said on Wednesday. ‘What we currently have is a deal at the technical level,’ Johann Schneider-Ammann told a news conference in Berne. He said exact details of the agreement would be given once it has been signed in the next few months. China is Switzerland’s third biggest trading partner after the European Union and the United States, and the pact covers industry as well as agriculture. More details may emerge when China’s Premier Li Keqiang visits Switzerland next week.”
