This week EL PAÍS published a series of stories by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) exposing how shell companies are helping Russian oligarchs avoid Western sanctions. We also interviewed Andrei Kozyrev, who was the first foreign minister in post-Soviet Russia and who has shared his insights into what he views as the West's policy of appeasement towards Vladimir Putin.
In science news, we spoke with internationally renowned ethicist Bartha Knoppers about the implications of scientific advances in gene editing, and looked at what a 3,000-year-old body found in northern Spain reveals about the origins of the bubonic plague,
In culture, we examined how the towering figure of Chilean poet Pablo Neruda has been undermined by a feminist reassessment of his life (including a rape confession) and looked at new findings at a Guatemalan archeological site that shed light on the complexities of the Maya calendar.
We hope you enjoy this selection of articles from EL PAÍS English Edition. Thanks for reading.
