IN CONVERSATION WITH LARISSA M. BIELER
"Switzerland has strong global interrelationships: it shapes foreign countries, it exercises influence, it depends on foreign countries – journalistically we have to position ourselves more strongly"
"SWI swissinfo.ch is the proud heir to a fascinating history of Swiss foreign reporting. Now using online platforms and social media instead of the airwaves of the past, we're a 'soft' power, conveying Swiss values to the wider world, using modern language and modern ways of storytelling."
Igor Petrov
Head of the Russian Department
