    It is clear the amount of hatred that this former director of Renault speaks about Ghosn, this reflects his failure to run the company, so the Renault Board of Trustees decided to choose Ghosn as his replacement, which created a complex for him, how can one person be a successful manager for several companies at the same time, and that It was not successful, why did the company's Board of Trustees renew the contract in 2018 for four new years. This report is biased to undermine Ghosn's credibility. The homes discussed in the report are the Nissan Board of Directors approved his purchase of Ghosn as part of the contract. He was a successful manager and the proof is that Renault and Nissan lost billions of dollars after his departure.

The guy brought out Nissan from the dust and its betrayal. 2 mins off the phone is something to be ashamed of? When has getting bigger, greater and better being a problem? A man falls and those who were once his friends/colleagues run out to reveal how shameful he was, how it was a matter of ego in his vision of pulling 3 mega multinationals together.

      Mr Pelata was brought into the Alliance by Ghosn in 2008 and later resigned in 2011 because he didn't manage to spot a case of industrial Spionage in Renault. In the case, some former top directives were falsely accused of Industrial Spionage and were sacked. Pelata resigned as Chief Operational afterwards.
      So yeah, giving voice to Pelata wasn't the smartest move.

    Mr Ghosn was followed by Nissan employees when under house arrest even though that is illegal in Japan. When his lawyers brought it to the judges attention they just ignored it. When Ghosn would call the media from house arrest the Nissan employees would magically disappear (because the phones were tapped - which is illegal in Japan). The proves that the people tapping the phones (Japanese justice authority) and Nissan were working together against Mr Ghosn in a way that was ILLEGAL. They were not playing by their own rules that they were expecting Mr Ghosn to follow. Why should he play by the rules when they aren’t? He shouldn’t.

    The fact that the video allocates all of 20 seconds (from around 13:00 to 13:20 ) to the crushing violation of Ghosn's civil rights inflicted by the Japanese police and prosecutors is easily understood when we remember that the Financial Times is owned by the Nikkei, the biggest business newspaper in Japan.
    The guy may be guilty; he may even be the evil overlord that this video wants to make him look like. But Japan should respect the civil rights of detainees and the presumption of innocence, which it does not. 108 days of detention incommunicado, no lawyer, no visits, under constant interrogation. What's the difference between Japan and North Korea or China?

    "People will start losing interest." No one has lost interest in Mr. Ghosn. People have lost interest in Nissan. This video didn't even touch on Saikawa resigning, the veracity of the financial misconduct allegations, or really any evidence that he wasn't managing the companies well. This just seems to be more anecdotes and character assassination.

      @@bandanabandana6134 Japanese elites were desperate, so they didn't think straight. In China and Vietnam, the Communist Parties control the pockets of the economy (from shadow streets to main streets). They can choke foreign companies out of their profits through regulations, crime syndicate raids, penalties, and other harsh means. They can simply allow foreign companies to own the assets and domestic companies but the Communist Parties are still in power in any situation.
      Japan does not have complete control over its own economy and nation, so they have limited options for handling Renault within this alliance. The only way was to pull a coup against Ghosn that will allow a Japanese CEO temporarily rule for a while. The long-term effect of the Ghosn saga is the decline of any foreign executive who desires to work in Japan. If Ghosn got his way with Macron, Renault will permanently own both Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors. There won't be a thing that Japan can do to reverse it.
      Now, Renault still controls the alliance through their vetoing power. With unlimited backup from the French government, there is no way that Renault will give up their position in the alliance unless Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors sell their business segments or technologies/patents for Renault as parting gifts.

Was there focus on Renault instead of Nissan, after just cutting costs and putting off bankruptcy? Renault was great before it was nationalized and taken from the Renault family after WII, but had it ever regained its previous stature? As example: Toyota became great from perfection and quality.
    Mr. Ghosn has great management strategies, and organizationally improves the cos. he’s supervising.

    Yikes! This is such a shoddy biased video. Not the level of quality I've come to expect from FT. You've mentioned how he was illegally held and questioned for months without a lawyer in Japan, yet you don't see that as evidence he wouldn't get a fair trial?
    Japan's justice system is notorious for its extremely high conviction rate and confessions under duress. People are often held indefinitely without access to lawyers or even basic facilities until they are broken down and forced to issue false confessions.
    It is guaranteed from the way they handled his case, that he would be convicted and made an example of, even without evidence. Plus, every action of his and his expenses were managed and accounted for by the companies. If there was funny business going on with Nissan's money, the CFO, auditors, accountants, and others were all complicit and enablers. It's impossible that he could pull all this off on his own.

    It doesn't make any sense for someone who takes 16 millions salary and merging 3 companies and looking to take on the forth to be removed for such claims.. And how he escaped shows how this system has serious holes and ironically the same system has a convection rate of 99%. In my opinion it's a political / business decision. Why not have the trial in France where he run one of the companies and was going back and forth between France and Japan!?

And he saved a company from failing and this is how you repay him? Ungrateful and jealous people around him?? Then you were saying that he inspired people and at the same time that he is dictatorial and feared, so which one is it?? Again obvious defaming...and if it's about corruption, then most of the CEOs and politicians and others around the world should be taken down and sued and put in prison, Or is it when you like it you don't and when you don't like it you do?
