that's less i'm show business i'll see that. 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. or canada may.

not get a pretty tiny little lonia block the signing of the free trade agreement with canada thanks to paul men yet it's minister president. 3.5000000 loons blocked a treaty concerning 500000000 europeans a smooth european entity defies the great liberal euro it's truly david against goliath. and beautiful to. come all of us face that one jesus was going to ask for id a figure from well big. deal as good of our federal partners on his own he did previous 17 us are not. as good vestry of big as you would get us big too quick i don't see or be asked of a desire because prevailed in norwalk sickness or don't want to sign it just. is original for the sources on those i'm going to join it is only covered folks at this sort of distress to me as it. that exam i was. very set up chris said

don't fix it it's all there are. to attract foreign investors your a promise canada that it would integrate the international arbitration system called. into the treaty. the cornerstone of the system is the deterrent effect for states when a complaint is made. nationalizes a business seizes property and the state then compensates for this expropriation. but if the state raises the minimum wage. or prohibits destructors 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. remember. that our. problems. are. a real scandal. this interactive. 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.

zax is there let me get these mickey sort of again these do look that is assume you do time to this we don't seem to get is because i didn't suit you get you know you go home and you also want to read us in that. interview with stevie's dispenses again the conspiracy chief did you like us to take on that is to add that back in the top set sun if it disappears if i happen to have all this room don't see dumont new news i want to take him on this will only hope soon that he's doing that gift you've got to look by example see. this is not if you know that is to simply deal with it politically she says i'm going to hold you in was that they give us clues that one won't again you. have to have don't look you know the lutetia whole family gets you it don't you that you have wealth and if it disappears you've got to hand you more this will be in steve and you could even if you need no token so matter of one example does he need it will be. stupid or he can do some stronger don't move

on from this is wrong or give up on the film and i saw most of us a betrayal to the richness in our desire to pre-sell and to be desire to see how he does it it would seem to make its move to check our visit to see me. there on the brain of a massive expansion of the whole of our investor 2 system. so what happens when we introduce a couple of new traders like santa and the other big one as the trans-pacific partnership promoters are biased as have a lot of like to say well we already have 2 or 3000 of these trainees what's a couple more attempts at combined with a save. takes us from still having 11 or any role in the world to be comic and establishments oval is a special why the foreign investors have their most powerful. into.

national level any private charter in the world most people think about trade they think about goods and services being a staged between countries and the and vast kampala the investor chopped or a trade agreement is about something very different is about establishing a special system of international protection for foreign assets. so that is the season is the postman. the cool it could be no leak he oho lap even the thoughts on foot length if you know is he going to use it that is the still missing c. xenia juicy toy you know he can see and if it is evil the false could well be and will exist to commit the will of all the most obsessed out of leverage on the level of people. really done their own justice i suppose quote david gergen this is dr bleak. level was when i security and i vowed

to live when i was single and i think that taking 12 hour delay or last saw something to break. the vision. i learned going to develop these i'm what you could be on the. defense a list of new homes in a composite a guest room confront someone they provide is all i would say only for. the goodness of current thinking on konqueror also not to kill. in these arbitration tribunals 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 the arrangements. 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 kind of. 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 place 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 anti 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 wagner fall into 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.c. scrutinize the tribunals decision. it mentions a mysterious compromise between vattenfall and hamburg signed in

a local court. order. and so that's what i said if they reached a settlement in front of the best accord in hamburg then this is a piece of information that i can request and the federal government refused. but the city of hamburg sent it to. the city gave a new permit which is less restrictive than the op that's the 2nd. button flooded one only button 5 wanted a change in the prompt 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. this fukushima disaster shook the planet and especially germany. pressured by

a 50 year old anti nuclear movement and following protests in 450 cities across the country under the merkel was compounds who act. she moved to abandon nuclear power with maturity suppose. anything ya plans and then. the bottom line. to me. in. the name quotation. if you can in any. can. you can consequences. and. one thing you know it's and that counted. in the.

other pundit make no certainly no borders just lying to nationalities. has emerged. as comedy crisis with dissidents and. we can do better we should. everyone is contributing. but we also know that this crisis. on forever challenges korea the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together.

the chancellor's decision became the 13th amendment of the law on atomic energy when it was voted in 4 months later. the 7 german plants were immediately closed among them those. which also belong to the swedish multinational vattenfall. immediately vattenfall challenge the legitimacy of the nuclear law at the constitutional court of karlsruhe 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 it filed

a new complaint in arbitration. the child takes place in washington although it essentially concerns europe. good morning i'll. be slashed 12th rushed. in a mental retrieve. the claimants and the federal republic of germany respondents in the interest of transparency being streamed so that the public. versus state settlement is about. to greet. its presenter this spring. the arbitrator. there defends the interests. and sabina conrad defends those of germany

compensation claims for poinsettia. 1000000000 year. as a consequence of the 13th amendment claimants lost their production licenses for the criminal plant and for the and plant there was simply withdrawn. the dispute does not concern germany's right as such face of nuclear energy rather this dispute concerns the manner in which germany has chosen implemented solution and its failure to probe to protect amos investments in particular concerns jim his failure to pay any compensation i don't. know the harken so most in this protection treaties is to provide protection against expropriation. the difficulty however when we talk about indirect expropriation is to draw the line between expropriation on the one and legitimate governmental measures on the other

. and there is no easy way to draw these lines and make this distinction. so of course one could say that the protection that in the west was enjoy under the treaty is influence how and walked the state regulates. doesn't matter if a parliament has adopted a role in the most democratic way. it can still violate international big ations that the state has undertaken in the international treaty. or it is for each individual state to decide whether or not they want to sign such treaties germany is trying to do just arbitration is tricks to fukushima disaster. to create a narrative that would excuse its wrongdoing. you can put a few monnet but the bottom line here is that the international and the government

this dispute. legally 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 for their problems but apparently in. reality a burning transfer meter is totally normal as are bursting pipes also normal involved and soon of us are corroded barrels with radioactive waste. to follow have shown you a promotional video off the power plant 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. until . over the defeat of. hind smigel a nuclear physicist from greenpeace called as an expert witness took a close look at all the plans failures. experienced and how this. will lose any say in most. cases with the defeat of. a trade in history of confusion throughout the ship so full. of comment. machine transform our doors to.

accelerate to phase out it was not based on concerns over safety of the nuclear power plants but mariner on an alleged change perception of the general risk that nuclear energy poses to the german population that is all politics. that involves lawyer is sheltering behind the law behind strict legal language so as not to recognise 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 both 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 changed in thinking about consequences of their cases lawyers are trained in

thinking about other life by the law. there is only a french. it is and the french term is that. so this is what this really apply is you people think very very this case is very controversial and has generated much public debate now why is that because it's an arbitration which should never have been brought under the energy charter treaty and under the exit convention. the reason for it through the amendment. was different. actually and you are correct. that is correct. if that is a public perception. how would that do legally. into. the investment protection on the new cd. if you are sure i make a number of assumptions 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 the right wrong some of the 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 thirteen's and men and it was a political decision and they'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 of 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 but laws still exist. while vattenfall trial against germany is proceeding in washington the federal constitutional court in karlsruhe where the 1st complaint was lived give this 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. but if i come off to prove to your room and all of these sheets great disrobe on trade schools there's a form and a cure you should start working on that country and how to also just and dozens of

what a 1000000. on a 1st impression it would all but i don't know about any speaks in the if you can was he me out in the oil or the bottom 5. it is up to the german government to set the amount of compensation to be validated 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 and with no democratic legitimacy. a considerable portion of legal costs $4.00 to $10000000.00 is to be paid primarily by the state.
