Swiss Economy Minister Guy Parmelin is set to meet U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer on Nov. 13, as Bern seeks progress in negotiations aimed at reducing tariffs imposed by Washington in August.
Washington imposed a 39 percent tariff on Swiss goods on Aug. 1, one of the highest rates enacted by the Trump administration and significantly higher than the 15 percent applied to European Union members.
