Switzerland in no rush to mirror EU sanctions against China

www.swissinfo.ch Switzerland in no rush to mirror EU sanctions against China

Switzerland has so far resisted the temptation to mirror targeted European Union sanctions against China.

Switzerland feared retaliatory measures from China but kept the decision quiet for undefined legal reasons, reports the NZZ am Sonntag newspaper. China’s ambassador to Bern, Wang Shihting, warned Switzerland last November not to impose sanctions. “Anyone who really cares about the friendly relations between the two countries and who makes responsible polities will not agree to the sanctions,” he said.

  They have followed up on all sanctions from the EU I believe. What do you mean no problem with Russians?
- While sitting safely in the middle of the EU. We should leverage that fact a lot more against that shitty tax haven. I wonder how the would feel about it if there aren't any open borders with the EU anymore lol.
  
  To be fair there are also plenty of tax havens within the EU. But I do agree that the EU has leverage that it should use more often.
Switzerland not afraid of cheap EVs and cheap solar.
What has china done now to need sanctions applied?
