EXCERPT:
MACRON (via interpreter): “As to tax, I'm in favor of an international tax funding the efforts we need to undertake in fighting poverty and climate. I recalled France applied on itself to previously proposed taxes on airline tickets and on financial transactions. You will agree with me that an international tax is international monetary, adopted by all. And there are international taxes, like socialism formally, it doesn't work in just one country. And so we're already a technological front, we're not going to continue to beat ourselves alone. We're going to try and rally and get others to follow.”
