Switzerland commits to Afghanistan's future

Bern, 14.9.2022 - At the beginning of September, the Fund for the Afghan People was established in Geneva with the support of the United States and Switzerland. The purpose of the foundation is to receive, protect, preserve for the future and partially disburse part of the Afghan central bank's assets, which are currently frozen in the US. In its role as a member of the board of trustees, Switzerland is helping to create medium- and long-term prospects for the people of Afghanistan.
