Swiss to set up body to improve US relations

(Reuters) - The Swiss government announced on Wednesday that it wants to step up contacts with the United States to identify solutions to issues relating particularly to trade, economics and finance.

The government decided to set up a body responsible for steering Swiss-American relations, it said, adding the new body will operate until the end of the year and involve all departments.
