I am at the OECD HQ in Paris today for important meetings on how to address the challenges of illicit trade in free zones.
We have designed and developed a compliance management programme for World Freezones Organization (World FZO) and its members in more than 110 countries, The Safe Zone concept.
Today we discussed this programme with OECD that has an initiative in this field. Everythong that can be done to enhance compliance, cooperation and partnership in the fight against cross-border international crime is good.
It was good meetings with experts from around the world. I see a great potential for this important to become a driver for prosperity and development of free zones and thus the goobal value chains where free zones play an instrumental part as and engine and driver of economic growth and prosperity.
The PM says it is her “great regret” there is still not enough support for her Brexit deal – but suggests she won’t change tactics.
Theresa May has admitted there is still not enough support to bring back her Brexit deal for a third vote in the House of Commons – but failed to commit to chasing an alternative strategy.
The prime minister updated MPs on Monday after agreeing a delay to Brexit with EU leaders at a Brussels summit last week.
The UK will now leave the bloc on 22 May, although this is conditional on parliament finally approving Mrs May’s Brexit deal by the end of this week.
Without MPs agreeing to the prime minister’s withdrawal agreement, the Brexit date will instead come sooner on 12 April.
Mrs May told the Commons it is her “great regret” that “as things stand, there is still not sufficient support in the House to bring back the deal for a third meaningful vote”.
Her admission came after a phone call with Arlene Foster, the DUP leader whose party props up Mrs May’s government at Westminster.
After the pair’s conversation, the Northern Ireland party announced its opposition to the prime minister’s deal “remains unchanged”.

We thought that the future of football – as many times before – would come from Brazil. This wonderful country that I love so much. The home of football. Joga Bonito,
Maybe his name would be Neymar Jr. Or something else.
It turned out that the future came from Paris and started his career in the academy of Monaco just around the corner from where we spend some of our time since fifteen years ago. On the Riviera, Cote d-Azur.
His name is Kylian Mbappé.
Zinedine Zidane is back. Or did ever leave Real Madrid? has decided. Now he has made his mind up on how to replace Christiano Ronaldo.
According to France Football, the goal is to make Kylian Mbappé, 20, the summer’s great recruitment. The preliminary reaction from Mbappés club PSG is that it will be a plus 300 million Euro transfer. Another world record. Mbappé already holds the record from his last transfer from Monaco to Paris.
Zisou is not only a master coach, and ome lf the best players ever – he was also one of the original galacticos of Real Madrid. Zidane knows the value of a star player.
I love Zidane and I love Mbappé.
As a pasionate Barcelona supporter, I can only say – this will be fun.
