The origin of the corona virus has been a politically sensitive issue for china and a bone of contention between democrats republicans and President Trump who refers to it as the chinese virus now to u. S. States and germany plan to sue china accusing the country of lying and covering up the virus what it 1st appeared back in the fall of 2019 for more on this will bring in our chief fronsac ferret how significant are these lawsuits and do they have any bearing so many of the short answer to that is probably not missouris attorney general eric schmidt is leading the case and after talking with economists at the university of missouri the state is looking to get upwards of 44000000000. 00 and now you also have mississippis a. Saying that shes getting ready to file suit now missouri is the 1st state to file against china mississippi the 2nd all the seek damages and it could be the 1st of many states doing this now according to the missouri lawsuit it reads quote during the critical weeks of the initial outbreak chinese authorities deceive the public suppressed crucial information arrested whistleblowers denied human to human transmission destroyed medical research had millions exposed to the virus and hoarded protective equipment causing a Global Pandemic that was preventable now today the Chinese Government called missouris lawsuit absurd listen here. The socalled lawsuit is purely malicious vexatious litigation which violates the basic legal principles according to the principle of sulfur inequality in its natural law so for the actions taken by Chinese Governments at all levels in terms of an Epidemic Prevention and control im not subject to the jurisdiction of the us schools. Now according to legal experts this lawsuit will face a number of uphill battles because of that but the missouri a. G. Says that he is one step ahead arguing that the Chinese Communist party is a nonstate actor and that is what gives him the legal argument that they can sue but now you also have both missouri and mississippi as a. G. s there calling on their states congressional delegations to back in a new bill put out by republicans tom cotton and dan crenshaw you see there that would amend the foreign sovereign immunity as act to create a narrow exception and actually allow people american citizens to actually sue china now this bill is modeled after the justice against sponsors of terrorism act which a lot americans to file civil claims against a foreign state for any injuries or death and that passed 4 years ago with 97 of the 100 senators approving at manilla yeah and fair and since china is saying that you know what theyre being sued for is just false and they technically dont have to respond to these lawsuits it isnt just all these lawsuits basically dead on arrival then well middle if you look at it from chinas perspective yes but if you look at it on a global scale not necessarily all germany is now wanting to file suit claiming that china owes them 162000000000 dollars and china said that was false and even said germany is being is you know phobic but there is however a window in International Law the World Health Organization has International Health regulations specifically that a country has to alert the w. H. O. And if they do not china could be sent to the International Court of justice however manila in order to be prosecuted at the International Court of justice china would have to consent to the lawsuit which as.
