The conditions for bringing a lawsuit against a foreign state. The Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing is chaired by senator Lindsey Graham of south carolina. Generally speaking, we have a foreign sovereign immunities act , basically shutting off lawsuits against other nations because whatever we do to them, they can do to us. We made exceptions to it. We have amended the act regarding terrorist activities. This is not an issue i take lightly. Ive thought ang lot about. My colleagues have worked to put together legislation, they have reconciled the legislation. Want to have a hearing about what it would mean if we amended the act to allow suits against china. And why would we take this unprecedented step . This is the third pandemic to come out of china. The coronavirus came from hunan province, but it was a mistake in a lab or spread at a wet market, i dont know, but we do know where it came from. We know china failed to inform the world about the nature of the virus that did restrict
Certainly china is to blame and has to be held accountable. View, doesr point of the sovereign immunity act need to be amended at all to allow you to move forward . We are moving forward because we believe that is how we proceeded on our lawsuit which we filed in the United States Federal District court of mississippi. That onportant to note the foreign sovereign immunities act, the commercial activity section is an act based on commercial activity in china that has a direct effect on the United States and they may not be immune. A reference to the nature of the court of conduct and a particular transaction or act. China was engaged in commercial activity, including the production, purchasing, import and export of ppes. Even essentially nationalizing the manufacturing. We believe this exception is workable and that is why i am proceeding with our lawsuit. Now, certainly the amendments of the Foreign Policy immune act would be helpful. Providing additional exceptions provides us broader
