Image description

SWISS === Devaluation of France === Important debate in the National Council: On 26 September 1936, the National Council follows the Federal Council's decision to devalue the Swiss franc by 30%. This measure is intended to boost the export economy, especially in the arms industry, and reduce the extraordinarily high unemployment rate. The week before, France had already devalued the French by 30%, which prompted the Federal Council to implement the measure, which had long been controversial.
