French President Nicolas Sarkozy is calling for new financial order, during his country's presidency of the Group of 20 economic powers. He also called again for an international financial transaction tax, to help meet goals of finding 100 billion US dollars a year to fund development. It comes at a time when many countries who made those promises are deep in debt.
Nicolas Sarkozy, French President said "France is favorable to a tax on financial transactions. France considers that this tax is moral, given the financial crisis that we've gone through. This tax is useful to dissuade speculation, and this tax is efficient to find new resources for development."
