Sunday Oct 24, 2021
It's been a rough month for some kleptocrats. The Pandora Papers, a trove of documents released by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists this October, has revealed a huge network of connections between the world's rich and powerful and offshore money hiding institutions. Figures from the King of Jordan to the prime minister of the Czech Republic have been implicated in the leak.
Join the Global Current today as we dissect the leak and its implications with Analysts Harshana Ghoorhoo and Andrea Hebel. Afterward, News Briefer Christopher Benitez-Cuartas recaps some of the most pressing stories from around the world this week.
