'Panama should not be a scapegoat '

panama - Panama should not be used as a scapegoat and is certainly not a tax haven. This minister and close associate of President Juan Carlos Varela Rodriguez, Alvaro Aleman, stressed Tuesday in response to the publication of the 'Panama Papers. Showing to all appearances in detail what the Panamanian financial and legal consultancy Mossack Fonseca amp; Co. has done in helping setting up offshore companies for many clients.

Alemán sees the decision by Paris to Panama again to chronicle as a tax haven as an insult. The statements made by the Chairman of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), José Angel Gurría, are irresponsible and disrespectful . Gurría complained Tuesday in Berlin that Panama is one of the last major conscientious when it comes to providing information on black money.
