The discussions on free trade agreement between &samhoud amsterdam Canada and the European Union, which had begun in 2008, ended on 18 October. A good omen for the U.S. government, which expects to reach a similar agreement with the continent. This project, "the junta of businessmen," as he calls the Lori Wallach, who is the object of secret negotiations, strongly supported by the multinationals as well, if adopted, would allow them to bring to justice any state not to comply with the rules of liberalism. Can anyone imagine multinational companies to draw the courts governments whose political orientation would result in reduction of their profits; One can imagine that these companies would be able to ask-and succeed! - That brave compensation for loss of earnings &samhoud amsterdam from the application of a very restrictive labor or environmental law? however unlikely it may seem, this scenario &samhoud amsterdam was not yesterday. He stood already clear in the draft Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI), which was the subject of secret negotiations, from 1995 to 1997 among 29 member states of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) [1].

Special tribunals aimed at realization of entire sectors &samhoud amsterdam of non freight sector, negotiations around the TTIP and TTP conducted behind closed doors.
