be monitoring the situation right, well let's take a look at with some of the other stories making use around the world. hong kong pro democracy activists, china and tongue has been released from police cars 3 a day after she was arrested. child is accused of organizing and promoting an annual vigil to commemorate the victims of china, 1989, piano and square massacre. police at the visual was an unauthorized assembly. the kurdish lat administration in syria's northeast and handed over a dutch woman and 3 children to a delegation from the netherlands. they've been living in a camp for families of alleged islamic state militants. european countries have been hesitant to repatriate their nationals in such situations. the 1st cruise ship to darken venison to start the pandemic has left the city and made protests. activists opposed. the huge vessels carried thousands of passengers

at a time saying they pose environmental and safety risks to the cities. fragile lagoon . t 7 finance ministers meeting in london say they've reached a deal on global tax reform. the agreement is designed to close the loopholes used by some of the world's biggest companies to avoid paying taxes. germany says it's quote, good news for justice and fiscal solidarity. it would set corporate tax at a minimum of 15 percent, no matter where companies are based. the british finance finance minister, which is soon i could maybe announcement. so let's take a listen. i think the crucial thing for people to take away is the principle of fairness. that's what we've achieved today to ensure that as a level playing field for all types of companies, and whether it's people operating in tax havens or it's digital companies, we're going to level the playing field and inject that principal offenders into our global tax system. that's the price. right?

well let's bring in thomas. so if y'all, he's a lecture in accounting at the u. k. 's, university of nottingham, and head of secretary of for the independent commission for the reform of international corporate taxation. so hello thomas. i'm welcome to d. w, i want to start by asking you hi significant, is this g 7 announcement and why is it taken so long? so was historic a, the father for the 1st time, a high level political level. the. we recognize that facts competition is armful and a damages countries all over the world. 240000000000. last is a least estimated he's taking so long because there's been a strong opposition struggle position of tax payments. and we seen just a few minutes ago. the finance minister looks to me a welcoming base deal which gives you an idea. wow, i'm vicious still. this is really below while the us as

a region the come out with 21 percent. so they didn't get any good feedback from you. appear leaders, chief avenue, be in just have a needed. and so they table the compromise of it all in leaf 15 percent. so it was important now is, well, these big these countries will do. so will they take to a 15 percent, which will then rate they needed to bring everybody on agreement around the table including the likes look some book. will they go more like the u. s. so 21 percent . the medium would actually the u. s. is planning to introduce and this will make all the difference because g, 20 countries represent 90 percent of global prophecies. what they will do that will matter in terms of stopping tax avoidance, by multinational come on. so that brings me actually onto the next question. now you've already mentioned luxembourg, but there are countries here in europe, several countries that have a relatively low corporate tax rate,

most notably in the e u would be are. and then of course, i'd say you have switzerland are, is there going to be much resistance from countries whose rate is quite low? there is this will be significant, but this doesn't mean that a global minimum cost i global minimum docs going to work. individual countries cannot unit, actually, the u. s. will do his own minimum talks, canada, japan, south korea, china, i do the same and that will cover it. and then if you can, number multi nationals. countries in the global south can introduce a minimal tax at a higher level than 50 percent. you will, i will have an issue. a question for you commission will be whether you countries will go in naturally. and so the germany from spain, i want to introduce the 21 percent medium boxes, war would recommend, they do the same time if they bring it as a directive that will require every country to agree. so it's really important that the countries introduce a strong and high minimum tax, but this will be

a negotiation trade english issue. okay, we'll leave it there to myself and thank you for all your expertise. thank you so much bye. and you partnership between beijing and budapest has angered hungarian taxpayers who have to carry the near the 1000000000 euro financial burden. china is building a european campus of its shanghai based sudan university. not only are hungarians to pick up the camp, but no local contractors are to work on the project. most of gary's opposed to plan and anger is growing against foreign minister. victor or bon tysons have taken to the streets of the capital to protest their governments cooperation with an authoritarian regime when our correspondents funny for shark gave us more on the concerns of the projects opponents. the main concern is, if i mentioned, gerd estimated that this entire project is going to cost about 1800000000 euros

paid by the union or a china no one right now. currently, actually the me are happy speaking. what i wanted to see was wrong against prime minister bond in the next year, and he says many different things will be done with this money is that people have gathered here some who are actually the see this policy, the government, you're disappointed because actually this project was the money needed for affordable housing is going to be pretty tiny project, but people yeah. also making clear actually not against chinese people in hungary, but yeah. questioning the financial scope of the tire project that is putting them on the hungry and talk to you. they are not hungering is one of the most corrupt countries in the european union. city police are doing this project, the government and people that i know which to the opera lead of hungry, you know,

put away money. right. so the hungarian government is in defense of the plans and chinese university campus, but who really benefits from this relationship with china? gearing governments are also going to benefit from this project because actually we don't want to be to divert because china can please dictation competition here in hungary are catching up on the very 1st european campus offered and university you're in hungary, so they say congress actually and home here in is going to do is, are going to benefit from it. but if you, on the project, as i say, it's poor to go by the hung hearing taxpayer. and it's going to be billed by a chinese people coming from china and by china material. so there you really ask yourself them to is going to benefit this project? is it really hungary or rather china and chinese intelligence the through the help
