BERN, April 3: The Swiss government on Thursday reauthorised arms exports to Pakistan, saying it saw positive political developments in the country.

The Federal Council said in a statement that it had given the green light to Swiss company Oerlikon Contraves to deliver a total of 24 anti-aircraft batteries and ammunition worth $153 million. Six of the batteries had already been delivered when the government decided to suspend exports to Pakistan last November.—AFP
