9:18 pm
the algorithms of the world's largest distributor of news facebook. actually, a feverish lice laced anger and spread faster and they've been taxed for some who watched the nobel peace prize in its regular controversies closely. this year's decision is a welcome one. i think this was bull's eye gets, are obviously, well, the served. and it's 2 candidates that are, that both have a dumb, exceptional work in their home countries. but this is all surprised that speaks to the larger issue, the larger issue of press freedom and the larger issue of encountering, fake news, and welcome news too. for those hoping to see more women winning an award that seldom come their way. since the swedish industrialists alfred nobel founded the nobel prizes in the late 19th century, behalf only b 17 individual female winners of the peace prize. maria theresa is the 18th. a small step towards correcting a pretty big gender imbalance. i asked barrick rice anderson why there are so few.
9:19 pm
we have always paid attention to the way then there's a in the time where there was a much worse in quality situation than it is the day. not city living, continued the woman in selecting these to win as the nobel committee has made a statement. it says freedoms of information, an expression matter they matter to democracy, they matter to piece. and so they matter to billions of us, rory talents al jazeera hosler, un secretary general antonio terrace, has been among those congratulating dresser and mortals and want of worsening dangers, facing their profession. we are seeing growing violence and harassment against journalists in person and online. and women journalists are often subject to
9:20 pm
particular abuse. at the same time, while technology has transformed the ways you, me to receive and sharing information, it is also used to mislead be public opinion, or to fool violence and hatreds. falsehoods, trump facts, and this can not become the new normal, free and independent generally is, is our greatest l. i in combating misinformation and dizzy information. now, nearly a $140.00 countries of agreed to impose a minimum tax rate on multinational companies. some of the world's biggest corporations are now set to pay at least 15 percent tanks. it's aimed at discouraging businesses from declaring profits in low tax territories. ireland hungry and estonia were among the last to join the agreement after lengthy negotiations. pakistan, nigeria, kenya, shall anchor didn't sign up at all. we're gonna talk to alex called them about this
9:21 pm
chief executive of the tax justice network, which is a u. k based angio focused on tackling global tax abuse. he's on skype from grand canary. las promise. thank you for your time. it sounds good, but 15 percent isn't that much? is it not for these companies? it's no and when you look at the detail of this deal, what you see is that it is really failed to deliver on any of the ambition numbers that when they began in 2019. so you have 2 pillars, pillow in which you switch to a line, the right to tax with way companies are actually making that money that we can are applying to both multi nationals and all of their profits. and that would really be revolutionary. and instead it's only applying to about $100.00 multi nations and a small bit of land profits. so that's really kind of small been tele to is the one that still has the ambition mission, the quoted or minimum taxes. but as you say,
9:22 pm
setting the rates as low as 15 percent, where tax havens long island and brochure it to be means 2 things. firstly, it's not very ambitious in terms of allowing us to raise the taxes. secondly, the incentives to shift profits out of the countries that have a tag trade to say 20 phone will 30 percent is still going to be very substantial. so we're gonna see that profit shifting continue because neither of these elements are going to stop it. we estimate that modem and trillion dollars, profit is shifted by the biggest, multinational every year, causing revenue was his but $245000000.00. so this may reduce that, but not on the lol. so why had to fix, sorry, sorry to interrupt you. why have, in your opinion, the ambition not matched the, the end product in the end? is it, is it almost a sort of tacit resignation recognition that these companies are extremely powerful and you can only go so thought. so i think that's part of it. you know,
9:23 pm
the cd has always been very heavily lobbied by the multinational companies and their advisors and it's difficult sometimes for them to move forward. but the other piece is the obesity in selling easy is the group of rich countries. mother glibly inclusive, frank learning morgan 70 countries are involved in this a tool that's more than a 3rd of the countries in the world. as you say, some of them that are involved of rejected it. and lots of others are unhappy. this is really ended up being a deal between a few european countries and the united states in which the united states in a sentence has one. they've protecting their multi nationals from being taxed very effectively by anyone else. and they gather the most of the additional revenues for themselves. and that's great for president biden. it isn't very good for anyone else, and it doesn't give us much homes at this deal with the sustainable. so i think we'll be back into negotiations again quite soon. and that's really a failure to deliver on this opportunity. i thought present in bottom was all about
9:24 pm
taxes on already raising taxes on, on, on big businesses and higher in as yeah. and we look at the domestic level. i think prison 1000000 has something quite coach to a tax justice agenda, but unfortunately, the u. s. even under his administration is continuing what you could call and america i'm pregnant and it's not as aggressive. and i'm legend as on his predecessor, but certainly what they're interested in here is getting the international conditions to do what they want domestically. and they're not really looking to see what the implications are for other countries that might work for them in the next couple of years that we had a lot more revenue, i think. but it's not good for anyone else. and last because of the country actually say no, this is not ok. alex comes from the tax justice network. great to talk to you. thank you. alex making to mexico. whether you are a secretary of state and are the top officials are visiting to discuss and new
9:25 pm
security deal. they're meeting president under manuel lopez open the door and government ministers talks aimed at forming a new joint security plan to replace the marita initiative, which has been in place for over a decade. critics say it has failed to fight drugs related violence and to stop illegal migration. after 13 years of the reader initiative, it's time for a comprehensive new approach to our security cooperation. one that will see us as equal partners in defining our shared priorities. tackle the root drivers of these challenges, like in equity like corruption and focus not only us reasoning long foresman, but also public health or the rule of law inclusive economic opportunities. joining us now is annabel hernandez, a mexican investigative journalist, and the author of several books, including narco land and a massacre in mexico. she's with us on zune,
9:26 pm
from an undisclosed location for her own safety annabel. first of all, what went wrong with the initiative that was in place? the marita initiative was it that the governments did not enforce it properly. well, i'm bigger than with dad. dad. dad, dad agreement is dad was a lot of best buy is b o. from there you as gara men to the mexican government, i mean happened many things. and we down down management of the mexican government and, and that's a, that's what i think the mexican government, the government one doesn't end up is what i don't want to change that this strategy . and so what are you expecting from this new, or the attempts to make a new security d a what actually needs to happen to try to deal with these problems? i think that's, that, that's the key question. because, you know, in mexico,
9:27 pm
to really, really the situation is very back. i mean, is worse. i mean, that never, we are talking about that in the street 1st years of the government or from this one. it was a rather have been more there for you. the don't really have been the stuck here. 21000 people have be more there doing their wire between the characters, 90000 people just in today years. so this edition is great. it is very, very complicated. and of course, each create for the u. s. government. and if you see from the u. s. government, i'm not sure about the issue. so of course, the u. s. government want to be able to collaborate to, to work closely with their mexican government. the problem is that apparently the mexican government preferred to keep the affairs at home and not and not be a of course in america as can be happening with the case. for example,
9:28 pm
over there for me, secretary of state instead of not that now, if you get in new york and i think the mexican go, but i don't want to expose, expose excess, do them. and i said to them to the salvation to the migration of u. s. government. and i think that will be they, they've been difficult on seen these new a be sent and you know, agreement we also have to remember that and maybe you can explain this to you. is that the incredible power which the drugs cartels have in mexico, that is a difficult thing to find. and i wonder if that's something that the government can even be, you know, caught up in almost overpowered or, or having to almost work with them. and some, some cases obviously we're talking about a huge we're not just going to, well,
9:29 pm
we are talking about that this not got the most important factor in mexico has presence in mos in more than the 60 percent of the planet. i mean, these met the pro, the problem is not just a mexican problem, and i think the mexican rescue that have to be all been for the collaboration because i will not be able to do it 1st because she doesn't have the correct people in the dish and exceed aloe, the room shut in mexico. and he had been, had not been able to clean the country 2nd, because big, huge market of consumers are not in mexico. mexico produce drugs, mexico and traffic. but they consumers outside what you don't do. i be not, you know, globally started, you will not be able to resolve these, these problem by yourself. this keeps going round about hernandez. great to talk to
9:30 pm
