LONDON, Oct 6 (Reuters) - The world is one millimetre away
from a deal on global corporate taxes and an agreement could be
signed in Washington next week or at the G20, French Finance
Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Wednesday.
"I'm fully determined to pave the way for a consensus
because we are one millimetre away from a global agreement on a
new international taxation system for the 21st century, and we
should not lose the opportunity to build this new taxation
system," Le Maire told CNBC.
"We could either next week during the Washington meetings,
or at the G20 meeting in Rome at the end of October, sign the
final agreement under the international taxation system."
