Yeah that no typo that Swiss and CHINA?
China and Switzerland signed a joint declaration Monday to bolster an existing free trade agreement and deepen bilateral ties, the Swiss government said.
The free trade agreement between the countries was first signed in 2013, and at the time marked the first free trade deal between Beijing and an economy in continental Europe.
Efforts to make the deal stronger had stalled over concerns about China's human rights records.
Swiss President Viola Amherd wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that her meeting with Chinese Premier Li Qiang entailed discussions to develop ties as well as "development cooperation, mediation & human rights."
