WBR: BNP Paribas gets huge US fine 30 Jun 14

Mon, 30 Jun 14

France's biggest bank gets one of America's biggest fines, in a wallet-busting penalty for sanctions-busting. There are cries of "unfair!" from Paris. Also, how crowdfunding took over from traditional military spending in Ukraine to build a "People's Drone" to protect the country's soldiers. David Arakhania, an IT executive in Kiev tells us how he initiated1 the crowdfunding scheme for equipment for soldiers with $10,000 of his own money. And the great chieftain of the pudding race could be about to make a triumphant2 return to the United States as Washington prepares to end its import ban on the Scottish haggis. Award-winning haggis maker3, Robert Patrick, tells us how being able to export "true" Scottish haggis from his business in Camelon near Falkirk to plates in America would be a cause for celebration.
