Swiss President and Economy Minister Guy Parmelin will visit the United States from June 29 to July 9 to meet U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, following a June 25 announcement by the Swiss government. The itinerary also covers Canada and Mexico, including attendance at a World Cup match and discussions on updating a 25-year-old EFTA-Mexico trade agreement.
