London:
"I'm fully determined to pave the way for a consensus because we are one millimeter away from a global agreement on a new international taxation system for the 21st century, and we should not lose the opportunity to build this new taxation system," Le Maire told CNBC.
"We could either next week during the Washington meetings, or at the G20 meeting in Rome at the end of October, sign the final agreement under the international taxation system."
