| Dear Reader, Just the other day, we published Caspian Cabals, revealing how Western oil giants, including Chevron and ExxonMobil, ignored corruption risks and environmental harm to keep oil flowing through a 939-mile Kazakhstan-Russia pipeline. This pipeline enriched Russian and Kazakh elites, deepening inequality, endangering workers, threatening the health of communities and helping to fuel Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine. At ICIJ, we don’t just investigate transnational abuses of power; we expose the systems and secrecy that enable them. Our rigorous research documents grave, real-life consequences and forces conversations about how the world can better hold corporate giants accountable. Complex investigations like Caspian Cabals require exhaustive research, collaboration with trusted partners across the world and, crucially, the backing of people who care deeply about transparency — people like you. |
