El firmar tratados internacionales de inversi\u00f3n<\/em><\/strong>, con la esperanza de atraer inversiones extranjeras, ha sido<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

durante d\u00e9cadas una de las estrategias clave de los gobiernos que buscan mejorar el desarrollo econ\u00f3mico<\/strong>. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

El lado menos conocido de esta historia es que, al firmar tratados de inversi\u00f3n, los gobiernos est\u00e1n entregando el<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

derecho soberano de regular en el inter\u00e9s de las personas y el medio ambiente <\/em><\/strong>y se exponen al riesgo de gastar<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

millones en demandas judiciales que podr\u00edan haber sido utilizados para servir a las necesidades de sus pueblos.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Signing international treaties on investment, hopes to attract foreign investment, has been for decades one of the key strategies of governments seeking to enhance economic development<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The lesser known side of this story is that in signing investment treaties, governments are handing the sovereign right to regulate in the interest of the people and the environment and exposed to the risk of spending millions on lawsuits that could have been used to serve the needs of their people.
