An Australian academic is calling for a review of the European Union's tax blacklists after five Pacific Islands appear have been targetted unjustifiably.

He told Jenny Meyer Pacific Island countries are being scapegoated by the European Union in what appears to be a distraction from what is really going on with tax evasion in the Northern Hemisphere.
