Dutch government to appeal Starbucks tax ruling
The Dutch finance ministry says it will fight a ruling ordering it to recover as much as €30m (£21.2m) in tax from Starbucks.
European competition commissioner Margrethe Vestager ordered the country to recover €20m-€30m in back taxes from the coffee chain, accusing it of benefiting from an illegal tax deal.
Starbucks has already said it would appeal against the EU's decision.
The finance ministry said it supports the fight against tax avoidance.
