After 6+ years of campaigning to end the #energychartertreaty, the European Parliament just put the last nailed in the #ECT coffin. The EU exit is now confirmed. One more blow to the #ISDS regime.

Must read to understand the excesses and abuses of #ISDS in Ecuador and the irresponsible position of the current government pushing a return to #ICSID.
.@ecuarauz & I wrote this for @INETeconomics on Ecuador's return to ICSID, Lasso's pressures to return to investment treaties, and the arbitration that awards Perenco, a corporation headquartered in the Bahamas, over $400 million of Ecuadorian money: https://t.co/r1on3ktnqR

Una barbaridad que la entrada nuevamente al #CIADI por parte de Ecuador no deba pasar por la Asamblea Nacional, cuando una Auditoría Integral de los Tratados ya mostró (en 2015) los efectos negativos del arbitraje para el país.

MEPs like @ManonAubryFr are right in sounding the alarm about the prospect of a new EU investment court. Just like under the #ISDS regime governments could be put off regulating in the public interest - out of fear of having to pay large amounts of money to compensate companies.

REVEALED: Large banks, law firms & corporate lobby groups are pushing for #ISDS style legal privileges in the EU, including a new court for corporations. Will the EU Commission fall for the corporate power grab? Our new report on the hidden lobby battle: https://t.co/jSEWqU4CUC

My latest report with @lucianaghiotto explores how the int'l investment regime undermines the judiciary and the decisions made by national judges. Taking the experience of Latin America, we present scenarios that show how #ISDS violates the judiciary. https://t.co/IcrHRPsRVk

Ecuador's re-joining of ICSID is not just irresponsible, it's a deliverate act of support by the Lasso government of the transnational capital, the only beneficiary of such a move. The people of Ecuador, as always, will end up paying millions of USD. https://t.co/sP4lxLWAfq

Nigeria's far-advanced ambitions to join the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT) have sparked outrage among labour unions and civil society organizations. Their perplexity derives from the fact that the ECT...
