G7 finance ministers have agreed that multinational firms should pay at least 15% tax.

Finance ministers of the G7 group of advanced economies have agreed that multinational companies should pay at least 15% in tax.

Also in the programme: a judge in California overturns a 32-year ban on assault weapons; and the detained novelist who has redefined Uyghur literature.
