We're publishing a leak of documents we’re calling the #CyprusPapers

They show the EU nation of Cyprus sold passports to convicted criminals, sanctioned officials & politicians.

We'll be releasing new stories all week. Here's a first look at what we've found. More than 2,500 people paid to become Cypriot citizens between 2017-19.

We found at least 15 billionaires in the #CyprusPapers.

But we also found dirty money.
