Collections and Control Flow 2nd challenge

I am unsure what to do here. The questions don't make much sense to me. I haven't seen anything like this on the video or the manual in the teachers notes! Please help.

switch.swift 
var europeanCapitals: [String] = []
var asianCapitals: [String] = []
var otherCapitals: [String] = []

let world = [
  "BEL": "Brussels", 
  "LIE": "Vaduz", 
  "BGR": "Sofia", 
  "USA": "Washington D.C.", 
  "MEX": "Mexico City", 
  "BRA": "Brasilia", 
  "IND": "New Delhi", 
  "VNM": "Hanoi"]

for (key, value) in world {
    // Enter your code below
    switch key {
    case BEL,BGR,LIE
    europeanCapitals.append
    case IND,VNM
    asianCapitals.append
    default USA,MEX,BRA
    otherCapitals.append
    }

    // End code
}

I agree that task is poorly described. Here is how it should look like.

   switch key {
    case "BEL", "BGR", "LIE":
    europeanCapitals.append(value)
    case "IND", "VNM":
    asianCapitals.append(value)
    default:
    otherCapitals.append(value)
    }
