The Battle Against Strategic Corruption and Weaponized Kleptocracy

The recently published Pandora Papers has exposed how politicians and public officials use offshore tax havens to hide their wealth and evade taxes. It's not just a moral dilemma. It's a security threat largely of the West's own making that allows autocratic leaders like Vladimir Putin to establish vectors of malign influence. On The Power Vertical Podcast this week, I speak with Paul Massaro of the U.S. Helsinki Commission, Josh Rudolph of the German Marshall Fund’s Alliance for Securing Democracy, and journalist Casey Michel, author of American Kleptocracy, about the steps being taken in the United States to oppose strategic corruption.
