His foundry had poisoned the small town of herculaneum missouri. He is now poisoning another city in peru. The communities come together to defend themselves. Back in about 2001 i was taking a bus from one guy youll up in the Central Highlands of peru down to the Coast Capital city where my family and i lived. Before you get to the city you start to smell the city. You smell think you smell lead and you see the vegetation begins to get out. And much of the rock is coated with white gravy it almost looks like calcium deposits. And we stopped the bus and i got off to stretch my legs we were taking a break there in la jolla for about 10 minutes and there were a couple kids who were walking down the street with their mother they were hacking their lungs out they were coughing really really bad as we went to the side of the smelter this smokestack is. Tons of pollution but you see its the passive. Contamination of whats leaking out of the holes of the smelter. Theres no filter on that theres no chimney to get it up and out of the valley.

The company agreed to meet the new Environmental Standards but instead of investing in the site i were rendered committed tax evasion and sent the money to 2. 00 subsidiaries one in missouri and the other in the cayman islands. The city of la roja which south americans call the chernobyl of the indies is ever more polluted. The Presbyterian Church became more and more aware of the inner connections between. The us economy and. Emerging economies around the world particularly around the issue of Extractive Industries and we asked the question what if there was a connection nexus connecting folks in missouri with folks in peru.

Government was continually assaulted by the threats of the door run company which said 4000. 00 jobs will be gone tomorrow local folks desperately needed to jobs so it became a significant issue and every time there was a threat or the rumor moved through saying that the Company Might be closed or the approving government was going to be forcing the closure of the company folks would hit the streets.

Isnt indirect expropriation the domain of International Arbitration. Ira rennert attacked the peruvian state and the trial took place in washington without the people. That being the case please let us invite mr hamilton to begin his oral submissions thank you. For still enough to release. Their record source of course. As one of. Us costs us yglesias. Us by the race murder race or impress us this. Economical as. The treaty allows an investor to bring a claim against the state either on the claimants own behalf. For its own injuries for state conduct or it may bring a claim on behalf of an enterprise that it owns and controls for loss or damage that the enterprise has suffered free trade treaties have cost the state investor clause which allow Companies Corporations to. Local Community Government groups states nations if they feel that their profits are being undermined in a new way past present or future profits.

They can be sued the local folks in peru have real fears a lot of doubts about the arbitration system feeling that its almost like its described as a faceless jury no one knows theyre not accountable to us we dont know who they are we dont know who got them into those positions of arbitration put the Decision Making it took it away from local community and people who would live to reap the consequences of those decisions and put it in the hands of people whom we dont even know. To give a voice to the community of love the regional archbishop. Obtained a public hearing at the Foreign Affairs committee of the us congress. Marrow and the st louis researcher Fernando Serrano were called to testify in july 2012 and we have sound Scientific Evidence is the great threat to the people of the environment as is the studies have shown. Great concern again is the multiple exposure all of these toxic metals affecting the body and the effects and so in a discussion of the economic and legal in other factors related to the relationship between the United States government emperor in different work of the us trade for you agreement i believe i believe we must put an emphasis is we must make a priority of the hail needs and rights of the people of illinois especially the children and especially the born children being born with lead in their bodies and that is something that we can see theyre completely unacceptable like you know. If she would. Noisily akiko needed a political. They can equal exploded and then go to their then either load or yes eco mad at a pretty. After hope you know that i mean. Iraq i mean us have them what they. Have not yet. But that is but as this. Legal. This watch at this is a man that unless they look at 11 of my concerns with each of the Free Trade Agreements going back to nafta with mexico which i did vote against primarily because of workers rights and because of environmental protections while on paper it looked to be very strong and robust and im wondering if the gores to the peruvian Free Trade Agreement is very similar week this with regards to Environmental Standards and are we doing our part as a government to push on that important area. Who is lawyers over 1000 children from laos filed a lawsuit against iran or in a local court in missouri which had ordered him to compensate the people of herculaneum in 2010. This lawsuit. Attacked peru before the International Arbitration tribunals. Probably after filing the notice of intent in december of 2010. Ran directly to the court of the United States. In an effort to remove. Claims brought by children of law. From state court to federal court theyd go did that by bringing to the attention of the United States federal court the existence of a treaty dispute that case played out over a period of years and in 2016 the International Tribunal found that renta oh had failed to comply with that obligation under the treaty to waive local proceedings its a very specific requirement the interpretation of that requirement was agreed upon by peru and the United States and the tribunal found that there was a violation of that treaty requirement and the claim and go to the arbitration wrinkle was refused because. Every songs but sure wrinkle kind of game reek label received the proof so that is why we do need a. Lot of careful to avoid. The risk of. The provable remain. A symbolic victory for the peruvian state which although not condemned is still required to pay between 4. 00 to 8000000. 00 of legal costs. And while the people of herculaneum were compensated those of have received nothing and continued to breathe polluted air. My greatest hope is that people typically in the United States will recognize the cost of a wax legal system that allows corporate polluters to. Literally get away with murder. And so. Weve got to recognize the fact that while investors have rights. No one has the right to take away the intelligence of any child and no one has the right to tribute for children in a committee. In europe the well those formidable action has raised awareness. European institutions are starting to act. In march 2018 the European Court of justice invalidated a fine of 22000000 euros against slovakia imposed by an Arbitration Court judging this sentence incompatible with european law. This could serve as jurisprudence for conflicts within europe. In making this decision the European Court of justice seems to want to reaffirm its sovereignty and jurisdiction. The European Commission is also preparing a project for a Public International and Permanent Court to replace private arbitration. But we must be realistic multinationals will never relinquish the exorbitant power granted by arbitration tribunals they can count on the worlds top lawyers to defend them and remind them of past Free Trade Agreements signed by states. All the more reason for Civil Society to remain vigilant and continue to demonstrate and resist so that states dont give into the lobbies of multinationals. To differ. In the freedom of states to legislate. To prison filth and the environment all over the world. And to defend the interests of the people rather than the major private corporate interests. Us.
