Public contracts shouldn’t reward aggressive tax avoidance.
As governments spend more on outsourcing, cloud and AI, EU #procurement rules must require #tax transparency from major bidders - and exclude those who won’t provide it.

OECD countries, including EU countries & the UK, just forfeited to Trump their sovereign right to tax businesses operating within their own borders. This is an alarming subjugation of state sovereignty – and yet it is being spun as a landmark tax deal.

Wow. In 'a so-called side-by-side system' the OECD has exempted US multinationals from key provisions of the global corporate minimum tax, supposedly a 'landmark decision in international tax co-operation.' Let's hope the UN can do better than this, negotiations on a #UNTaxConvention ramp up in 2026
