Eight Indian nationals have been arrested for involvement in a scam that used the names of 300 Thai women in forged marriage licences. (AFP photo)PARIS: Fresh from saying "sorry" to European lawmakers, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg holds talks with Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday where he will face renewed pressure over his company's tax policies. Zuckerberg apologised to the European Parliament on Tuesday for the "harm" caused by a huge breach of users' data and by a failure to crack down on fake news. Macron "is looking to start a dialogue" with tech bosses "to have discussions that will sometimes be frank and direct, to talk about regulation and international governance," an aide said. Despite Macron's efforts to push his European partners into creating a new tax system for multinational tech companies, talks have stalled due to resistance from EU members such as Ireland.
