The United States is reducing import tariffs on Swiss goods to 15 percent, announced US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.

Negotiations have been underway for some time since US President Donald Trump shocked Switzerland with 39 percent tariffs on August 1.

Now they are being reduced to 15 percent, more in line with the generally higher tariff level the US has imposed on the rest of the world.

The condition is that Switzerland will invest $200 billion in the United States.
