PARIS, June 5 (Reuters) - French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Saturday the Group of Seven agreement to commit to a global minimum corporate tax of at least 15% was a “starting point” and pledged to fight to hike it further. “This is a starting point and in the coming months we will fight to ensure that this minimum corporate tax rate is as high as possible,” Le Maire said in a video posted on his Twitter account.
