Swiss broaden sanctions against Syria
None
Switzerland banned three more Syrian firms, including the national airline, from doing business in the country and imposed travel bans and asset freezes on 25 more Syrians, mainly military officials.
The move aligns neutral Switzerland with a move by the European Union (EU) announced in late July, the State Secretariat for Economics (SECO) spokeswoman Antje Baertschi told Reuters from Berne on Tuesday. (Reuters)
