isn't a 70 costello to mention shuttle the team and back in 30 minutes with the latest headlines. what politicians do. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or something want to be rushed. to the right to be 1st that's what the fat free a boy as a good lad i'm interested always in the waters of our. last session bad.

in europe people are taking to the streets to protest the lack of transparency in treaty negotiations such as the t.t. ip treaty with the us and the seat a treaty with canada. the use of arbitration tribunals a central and totally opaque part of these treaties is a serious threat to the future of democracies. ridges all 3 want to be going to. make. a very. limited us analysis got. it if not a pretty tiny little was lonia block the signing of the free trade agreement with canada thanks to paul man yet it's minister president.

3.5000000 loons blocked a treaty concerning 500000000 europeans a small european entity defies the great liberal euro it's truly david against goliath who want us more judges equal. don't you. come all of us face that want to get us back to figure for what big. is good about fair hope there's one is what we do believe that if you're a genius or not if you don't. give a straight up big. give us big big i don't see or be out of a desire because prevail don't want to sign it just pull. the sources on those i mean i don't it is only. this sort of distrust for me as it examined this you know not that exam i was the 1st going is unfair i see it up chris i don't fix it is stoned out of all streetlights very good and your hope in. this will be.

to attract foreign investors your the problem is canada that it would integrate the international arbitration system called dns into the treaty. the cornerstone of the system is the deterrent effect for states when a complaint is made. when estate nationalizes a business it seizes property and the state then compensates for this expropriation . but if the state raises the minimum wage or passes an empty g.m. or prohibits disruptors it can affect a company's gains. this is an indirect expose creation since it's a loss of earnings. sufficient ground for suing a state before a private international arbitration tribunals. do not. give up

in the process of this it is not the last of the strongest on my demands for a plus. plus one targeted at the demand on the hike is on the route that have been before. for an obvious. smoking up by your a real scandal. this indirect exposure creation written into the sea to and other treaties opens up a real pandora's box. complaints against government measures that bother investors are likely to increase. arbitration tribunals are a massive deterrent to the state. in his article it's also news that it is that they have to. stand. there let me get these it's all in again is the glue that is a strong hide behind these as we don't seem to get is because i didn't get you know

the gong annual routine us tonight. skivvies dispenses a good thing conspiracy chief did just as you like us to take on that is to add that back into. this industry as the. new news i want to take him on this one on the hope. by example sit. as decision up again that is to simply deal with it once it is he says we're going to hold you in was that they give us again you. don't look enough. because you know it don't you know you have well and if it destroys you've got to have you more this will be in steve and you could even see me no token so matter of one example does it. do sucks your dog. this is your government if and when i saw the betrayal to the rich customer discipline pre-song

to see how he does it it is it's a gimmick it's going to check our visit to submit. to it there are a range of other massive expansion of the law for investors 2. so what happens when we introduced us. couple of new treaties like santa and the other big one is the trans-pacific partnership the promoters advised the ass of long like to say well we already have 2 or 3000 of these trainees what's a couple more teams that combine with a seat and the pain takes us from still having a minority role in the world to becoming a establishments of the institution why the foreign investors have their most powerful rights at the international level of any private party in the world most people think about trade they think about goods and services being a strange between 2 countries and the investment component the investor chomped or

a trade agreement is about something very different is about establishing a special system of international protection for foreign on this. p.d.f. you will see that is the season. but. it could be a new leak over who that leak even with the thoughts on foot length if you know is he going to use it that he still missing c $98.00 xenia do you see to it you know he can see it and if it you bought it thank you the folks could walk up to you more and we exist to commit that we would have all the. on the level of people. really doing the own juices a simple quote. don't believe. they live less going to security it's time i've got to live with less you know. 12 hour delay when i was saw something beneath.

those a vision. is going to develop these i'm what you could be the. defensiveness given hons unique on the tests and on consuming they put it out is all i'm going with the only facet. goodness of thinking also not at all. in these arbitration. multinationals impose their will most often in great secrecy . secrecy is not only an obstacle in forming citizens it is the keystone of the whole system allowing for the most shameful arrangements. i am this is what happened in germany when the swedish multinational vattenfall a large energy producer indirectly attacked the city of hamburg in 2009. plan

to get the federal state that remained secret for years and was unveiled thanks to a professor of international law marcus kai of. every tradition are secret because no one prevents the parties from the goes if anything and then in the public hearing they will say whatever they say but the real negotiations will take some face outside i in 2007 vattenfall obtained a building permit for a coal fired power station in the suburbs of hamburg. following the 2008 elections and to petition the elected green party review the permit. the discharge of hot water into the elbe to cool turbines threatens the aquatic fauna vattenfall would have to comply with and the pollution measures.

and how did vattenfall react by immediately filing a complaint before an arbitration tribunals demanding 1400000000 euros in compensation under pressure germany secretly negotiated. with intil 2011 and suddenly one day the case was closed we only know at the end that they reached a settlement i listen this is very important the only publicly available information is that they settled. end of the story i am marcus k.f.t. scrutinize the tribunals decision. it mentions a mysterious compromise between vattenfall and hamburg signed in a local court. order. and so that's when i said well if they reached a settlement in front of domestic court in hamburg then this is

a piece of information that i can request and the federal government refused. but the city of hamburg sent to. the city gave a new permit which is less restrictive than the op that's the. button for did what many buttons i wanted a change in the public and that's what they got. as unbelievable as it may sound hundreds green party didn't impose the environmental standards that it considered just. i can just imagine the conversation that took place between the federal government of germany and the city of hamburg so the federal government said well look we signed this ficci we are bound by this internationally germany has international obligations and you have to fulfill that we can't you cannot become a break international law i mean this is also a powerful argument especially in democracies especially in countries like germany

but all over the world. even germany is caught in the trap of its treaties and gives in to blackmail. in total secrecy the state signed an agreement on march 11th 2011. that same day japan suffered the worst earthquake in its history. the planet and especially germany. 50 year olds anti nuclear movement and following protests in 450 cities across the country under the merkel was compounds who asked. she move to abandon

nuclear power with majority support. plans and then. to me. in. the name. if you can in any. one thing you know that counted. in the.

dream. remember that it was. it was bit much worse. but there was an expectation of the things were going to get better. there was a real sense of hope. there isn't today today's america where shaped by the turn principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy a tax. engineer. elections manufacture consent another prince holds according to know on chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite. that's what happens when you put her into the hamster narrow short term of will switch rule is dedicated to increasing power for chills just as you'd expect one of

the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected . so when you want to be president. or some want to. have to go right to the press that's what the 43 of the 4 can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. i should. thank you chancellor's decision became the 13th amendment of the law on atomic energy when it was voted in 4 months later thank the 7 oldest german plans were immediately closed among them those the boones bottle and crumble which

also belong to the swedish multinational vattenfall. immediately vattenfall challenge the legitimacy of the nuclear law at the constitutional court of calls with the highest court of justice in germany. but as a foreign investor vattenfall can also a tad germany in a private arbitration court. it had already won once. it could and would try again in may 2012. in arbitration. the child takes place in washington. in.

the claimant's the federal republic of germany respondents in the interest of transparency being streamed so that the public. states are meant. to greet. the arbitrator. of germany compensation claim for 1000000000 year. as a consequence of the 13th amendment claim of their production licenses for the criminal and for the and. they were simply withdraw. to dispute.

his right as such to face up. rather this dispute the manner in which germany has chosen to implement its decision. to protect its investments in particular concerns germany's failure to pay any compensation. for protection treaties is to provide protection against expropriation. difficulty however when we talk. to draw the line between explore. all the while. and legitimate government measures on the other. hand there is no easy way to draw this line to make this distinction. so of course one could say about the protection that investors enjoy under the treaty is influenced how and what the state regulates. doesn't matter if a parliament has adopted

a law in the most democratic way. it can still violate international purgation the state has undertaken in the international treaty. it is for each individual state to decide whether law they want to sign such treaties or germany is trying to do in this arbitration is tricks ploy to fukushima disaster. to create a narrative that would excuse its wrongdoing. you can put perfume on it but the bottom line here is that international and govern this dispute. germany cannot challenge the ratified treaty. but the swedish giant failed to meet its obligations. it did not repair its damaged power plants a great danger for the population. claimants now see compensation for their

own business failure billions for plants which were not tarrie is all their problems but apparently in. reality a burning transfer meter is totally normal as are busting pipes also normal and of us are corroded barrels with radioactive waste. shown you promotional video off the power and in that video none of the events that are listed here on the site feature. and plans but both of them have been standing still. not because of focus shima not because of the moratorium not because of the 13th amendment but because of a multitude of incidents. brutal

until easter. ofin the defeat of. a nuclear physicist from greenpeace called as an expert witness took a close look at all the plans failures. and here experience as an example hypothetical that is actually saying most 'd of the well in my school feel awfully cadence if we just feel out of. in trade and he's shown the whole thing could be easily throughout a ship so i fully clue. on this machine transfer mottos to thousands even. the machine guns from ah the how to it was you see on the military in. any begin this is in no mustn't. talk to guns it is after going. to hoot. it's a. gun it came from

a large you feel to link for me it is possible she only looked around me in the. discounting which was from call some sort of wood in the if this were in supercold through it. thus germany is in famine to a descriptions of fires quote unquote and pictures of corroded barrels quote unquote contribute nothing to the ultimate determination as to whether in 2011. he has admitted in this over trade that its decision to accelerate to phase out was not based on concerns over safety over nuclear power. but mariner on the alleged change perception of the general risk that nuclear energy poses to the general population that is all politics. that involves lawyer is sheltering behind the law behind strict legal language so as not to recognize the

multi-nationals responsibility. what is very clear that this group of people or many of them have been educated in a particular way they are all educated in this particular way of looking at international law as a sort of technical matter and at the same time thinking that giving companies as many rights and privileges will benefit the global economy so lawyers are not trained in thinking about consequences of their cases lawyers are trained in thinking about a way apply the law. there's only a french for this and the french term is the. this is what this really applies here people think in a very similar this case is very controversial and has generated much public debate now why is because it's an arbitration which should never have been brought

under the energy charter treaty and under the exit convention. the reason for this through the amendment. was different. actions is that correct that is correct. if that is a public perception. how would that do legally translates into. the investment protection. during the show i make a number of or some. i don't ask you to do anything but sure this would be because it is almost impossible hypothetical because you are. assuming that the public is wrong and is the right wrong perception changes in the public how does that translate into legally introduce you to. and i was listening to the.

opening this morning. claiming that the 13th and was a political decision and i've said it quite often i wonder when political has become such a dirty word. it comes from the greek political us which means relating to the people to the citizens to the state. and democracy is nothing if not political it is government off the people by the people for the people. it has to be political that's a definition and it's certainly not a dirty word. refusing any political or democratic consideration multinationals consider themselves outside politics and above the law . laws still exist.

while vattenfall trial against germany is proceeding in washington the federal constitutional court in karlsruhe where the 1st complaint was launched gives its judgement. the court declares that abandoning nuclear power conforms to the german constitution and that the companies affected will have to receive a financial compensation. to yours or mission your argument. this rover on trade schools. share your shorts entrepreneur come and talk to also distant cousins of us from here you're in also the song i'm commits on sometimes suitability to industrial in the tradition for the new. feet along and give you a wonderful foster mom that's involved in guns i'm not reconcile those condemning those going to move i just feel even uses funds often push the. same visa.

by the bundestag. in an arbitration case it's very different. the amount of compensation is much higher and is set arbitrarily by business lawyers that with no democratic legitimacy. a considerable portion of legal costs $4.00 to $10000000.00 is to be paid primarily by the state. oh my uncle the kids think compensate oh boy can i nobody. give them no proof nothing because. it's not. going
