Pandora Papers: call for consequences

As a result of the so-called Pandora Papers, some call for stronger action against tax havens in Berlin and Brussels. Germany must step up the pressure to act at the international level, SPD co-leader Norbert Walter-Borjans told Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland. „But we also have further needs in our own country in terms of legislation and enforcement.“ He added that the next federal government would have to deal with this. „We can and must start in our own country: with tougher penalties for violating reporting obligations.“
