March 22 (Reuters) - Switzerland has removed 12 people

from its Russia sanctions list over the war in Ukraine, the

State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) said on Friday.

Among them is Arkady Volozh, a co-founder of Russian

internet giant Yandex ( YNDX ), who recently cut ties with the Russian

business and condemned the invasion of Ukraine. He was recently

removed from the EU's sanctions list as well.

The others include Russian politicians, servicemen and

businessmen.
