Switzerland needs the tax deal so that it can normalise its banking relations with the United States, but Widmer-Schlumpf has played down expectations that Switzerland could force a breakthrough before the November election, suggesting the ball is firmly in the U.S. court.After the election in November, it would be several months before a new administration came in, then three or four more for new officials to get up to speed, Widmer-Schlumpf said.
