Switzerland to freeze any Maduro assets ‘with immediate effect’
GENEVA – The Swiss government said on Jan 5 that it had decided to freeze any assets held in Switzerland by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro or his associates “with immediate effect”.
Bern said it had reached its decision after Mr Maduro was seized in Caracas in a shock US military operation and brought to New York to face narcotrafficking charges.
Describing the situation as “volatile”, the Swiss government said in a statement that it wanted “to ensure that any illicitly acquired assets cannot be transferred out of Switzerland in the current situation”.
“The asset freeze comes into force today with immediate effect and will remain valid for four years until further notice.”

So much for neutral banking.
Europe just pretends to follow international laws. But America, Israel, Switzerland are all the same.
Wasn't Maduro sanctioned for years already? How did they come to hold them in the first place? Why Maduro and not others? Seems like Switzerland pledged loyalty.
let the vulture feast begin!
NaziMaduro Gold!!!Death to the swiss.
