Those who favour US–EU collaboration, including through the ambitious Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership agreement, can assuage these concerns by explaining how investment treaties strengthen international law. Governments created investor–state dispute settlement for their own purposes, anchoring it deeply in the UN system through numerous multilateral conventions—the most recent of which was adopted by the UN General Assembly in December 2014. By straying from this UN-based approach in its own response to public concerns, the European Commission might unfortunately weaken investor protection and the enforcement of international law. Its proposals on such issues as the right to regulate and the ‘investment court system’ should be reviewed in light of their impact on 50 years of international law.</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">8 months 3 days ago</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Letter</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">U.S. Chamber and BusinessEurope Urge Progress Towards New Safe Harbor</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Last week, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and BusinessEurope issued a letter to senior leaders on both sides of the Atlantic encouraging both the U.S. and EU to reach a prompt conclusion on the ongoing discussions for a new Safe Harbor agreement.
