sacred birthplace of 7 indigenous peoples. but in 2009 concerned about the environment the colombian state classified the zone as a natural park which ended the mining concession 2 . after years of negotiation attempts with the colombian government in 2016 andres durandal c.e.o. of the canadian company cozy go associated with the texan company told the mining counterattacks he files an arbitration request i personally did not know of the option of international arbitration where it will always heard of the world court but we here are my time i don't believe that was between 2 governments that were debating things. but the ability to take our

case to the international court of arbitration was a welcome relief for our shareholders to know that we don't have to depend on maybe some emotional sentiment by a judge in some rural location who is being pressured by his local. mayor. andries to mental seek profit just as he chooses to defend himself in paris with. a business lawyer specializing in arbitration disputes ringback ready. but i dare me. hello. yes and yes no longer me just like right there. listen 1st. yours we are past the cooling off period did not

result in any kind of mediation that separates and jeremy was one question i was thinking of was the big schooling off period how long is that normally somewhere into the middle course. which there's a meeting o. the 3 or b. triggers that will constituent the patrician panel which still takes 2 weeks at least from sarah i believe columbia well challenge jurisdiction of the courts. to make decision on this with confidence and then we will really move to yes that's the case yeah hopefully hopefully they're crossing fingers they'll be productive be nice. just go see gold starts to face difficulties with this debate going on between the

ministry of mines and energy and the ministry of environment we found ourselves with the good ability to work or whatever because shareholders from texas told the mining and energy motivated the company to seek. arbitration as a way of solving this dispute of this difficulty between the colombian government as a whole and the company. skew nipple t.q. died to do. this to move to cuba she moved into a new phenomena limbo nationals. did you vote on an option only this new some chinese in assume an. it is i think it was if a state school boy when you can see the only student he knew could get out. a lot should have been

a mature country and because. the. free trade agreements come up and need to understand that they had to respect the agreements so that investors' money would not be lost or stolen. there was a lot of money a lot of effort and a lot of motivation from small investors getting together small investors to combine their resources and work under the colombian government regulation of it helped the ministry of mines by assets for the colombian people. and between the machine. and. the. more of the wall done in tel aviv for you teach this to me even then. i throw in 20 these seem to fit sort out. the known.

of tension in free trade agreements is the introduction of private arbitration. present in most international trade agreements this is still is supposed to guarantee a fair impartiality to foreign investors so that they can defend themselves against hate abuse or overly restrictive legislation. because it would be honest you know since ones i mean i'm a do is going to. keep the question are you are if you think you know me says you do several these are different small always in the classroom it isn't easy . it is. easy if this is with us and for most folks simply isn't. did you feel. the need to send if you susan's to be clinton assume.

these arbitrators are not judges but business lawyers who take turns as the main arbitrator state defender or corporate defender. connelly pain they are often seen as a true multimillionaire industry dominated by a small the leet acting in great secrecy and too often giving priority to investors . while in some cases it seems normal to compensate them is that old least in the interest of the populations involved. was. was.

when we were beginning to enter the area the northern native tribes want to true develop the might of the southern group who was not in the might was not on the area were motivated by n.g.o.s afforded geos named and they were voted to go against the might so they try to set up sacred sites on a map. by discussing with certain spiritual leaders that they were motivating to declare sacred sites but none of the sacred sites they had identified are anywhere near the proposed might say. you know little piece of the n.b.a. . yet owned by the that they didn't it. they said he had better get on the local. and would more get out of this. and if they did attend.

to. me on monday and they don't like you. going from the minute on one of them. up with. the weekend then i will see to that the. they couldn't do. that when i was that you can come up with. that is was. bad that you did see if you had been so on the list but does feel. that if. i don't know what info is good it will be just as. it was at the initiative of the end shield guy amazonas that the natural park was created prohibiting gold mining on the entire indian reserve nelson ortiz a member of this in geo regularly returns to support the indians in their fight

against mining is. going to trickle see. the. math your kids. in the united. way down to what i found. out about yeah. so if i. get 98 feet out. of it i'm going this will be a man. during

the great depression which i'm old enough to remember there was most of my family were employed. there wasn't it was bad you know much worse objectively than today but there was an expectation that things were going to get better. there was a real sense of hopefulness there isn't today today's america was shaped by the 10 principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy at tax so loadout engineer elections manufacture consent and other principle holds according to no i'm colmes to one set of rules for the rich opposite. that's what happens when you put her into the. narrow sector of will which will 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. its. people did date the death of 1000 men. but about the people from above. is this the same for said this it was about. the. city see if i only knew one ending but up with. this he said with us you're not. going to do that as

a year. because you are our youth died by our youth that look with us you are. the indigenous peoples of the forest belong to dozens of ethnic groups who share the same origin stories. the many sacred sites of this land are its living organs. ensuring the ceremony the shoeman mentally draw is a path that connects these sites a path of healing that must remain untouched. to have waited to see if the fan that a number of the thoughtfully died. if and i say by this wonder brothers for a loved few sister plume didn't we trust him if i

could read to do research. what a phone all off the old teeth you have. never left your folded fold it folded forwards a few of that up i made it. clear that. the indians have not always spoken with a single valise. andre's mental problem is the money and a better life for some in the indigenous community the elders in general refused all mining from the start but others were tempted by rentals little gifts. to believe that it'll. be a consultation meeting as organized the tribes gather at the traditional house of

the luca their meeting place. and. do they worry because he goes complained they are making a manifesto for the colombian state to reaffirm their resistance to mining. to do this so they have my life now and i think it could affect them by name and it had to get that private and i got money i think at the time to make a. name out of that my god what did that come of ita bit of good advice that i would have a headache america anybody here but i don't think one of us had to do good but i did make it effective and then you know i think i am i have seen it if you. look at it and put everybody on the you. as his them up at. the ballot almost as if you know up as there was a. bad. boy. i think going to the program or going to new york and to go but i think when this the

if you want them all know this you want to move the i don't want this to. happen that young but i'm 100 and that most of that is going to give you money they look at they must see now says he i did not think. it was. that i. agreed gulf separates the world views of the indians and miners. some seek to protect their intentional property and culture. others think only of extracting the gold in indian soil and of the potential profits. there yeah. we were talking with jeremy and he was updating us on some of the stuff

that was going on with the arbitration and that you know there. faith both with. the 1st nations especially with the. you know the environment so i don't know if you have any. moral i mean. as you know. fire. all. chemicals. rock out there so. this is nothing to do with the environment in these circumstances whatsoever this is about power and. that with these so-called. charts.

we can do what we want. she said yes she did but we decided. to. 1000000000 because that's the irony. in all of south america. what do we think. is not backing off. all. the way with this. backing off.

let alone. this is your. only. dollars into solidness you know this. money to break the. lot of dollars for. this stuff like that. but it was back yesterday. contorted most of that it. was like what is being. used and.

it's time to take action and to share this experience with other indigenous peoples . representative of the. reserve. presents the manifesto to the international forum of indigenous peoples organized by the state. in addition to the indian populations this forum includes academics n.g.o.s and government members. all to support the indigenous peoples of south america in their right to be consulted before the adoption of all projects they concern them. more than 1000 people are present. that is what i get.

one carlos. urges communities to organize to preserve the autonomy and resist mining and tourism projects. that regulate the can put them into local. out because one top area. companies idea in. there that the move by juan carlos wants to spread the word to a wider audience. and this is. all good at the end she'll gaia he meets markel velasquez a lawyer specializing in international commercial law and human rights. i would out by the school i'm going to join a i've no doubt as to this question of. how i marry.

me in the year of those it is really here is the moment it was not on the. ground say you better not step. in no start up in no way. no when is it going to go on can. and you. can receive this is beginning in the us it's got them on the policy from iraq that one could look at but our kids in these i believe that brazil get open a business this year's couples who have been there are beating the bushes going to be back in the school is that the i think i mean for them i see on kerry in there in the new limb but he's. got the victim very. very concerned by the attacks of foreign multinationals against his country monaco is writing articles and preparing a book on the subject. he's

visiting us for repeats d.c. provides their own heart and in toronto to discuss the upcoming trial. a specialist in international investment law highly critical of arbitration tribunals he has regularly intervened on the international scene sounding the alarm for years. rowing 5 of the last weeks have been like a roller coaster in colombia i mean these claim. they want i wanted to talk to you about the one. for us to go yet ovulating case yes 16000000000 us i would say 20 percent of colombia's national public budget it was quite surprising because public authorities were saying that the agreements negotiated were positive for the corn 3 and that foreign investors would never start by

claiming that corn 3 in these very moment is what happened then why is the columbian law is not good enough for these foreign investors it is not the case that colombe. or sheeps were trying to solve our problems we're trying to become a more stable country and we have the means to do it but with these type of cases all our efforts to reach peace are put into question it's not the 1st country to be surprised by a foreign investor claims these treaties are like a ticking time bomb for taxpayer sooner or later they so there's not a lot of public discussion of these cases no doubt as well likewise i have a column in the newspaper and i tried to open the gate but the only thing i got from them was about berman and ignorance that's because it's embarrassing

to the trade department to see these treaties that they negotiated. used against the country if you're a foreign investor and you want to leverage against the government of course you would have an interest in many cases to keep it all confidential because of in cuba confidential and the government keeps a confidential and they can do deals. next it w 2 designs will soon amount to sweyn they go see all 6 a city let's look sit in an exit dodge i may do so we don't all see until the deal lets you know crazy divinely kid because it's us you know 3rd at the kiddish why democratic a 50 year old can't figure this workshop be on talk to see 20 young sitting next that dog isn't good but you should also i love. surely don't is that there's only.
