tests on consumer they provide is all i'm going with the only for. goodness we've been thinking on konqueror almost inevitable. in these arbitration. multinationals impose their will most often in great secrecy . secrecy is not only in. informing citizens it is the keystone of the whole system allowing for the most shameful arrangements. and 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.
