Can a U.S. corporation legally sign a treaty with a foreign military?
- hiddenfeatures 14y agoThat is an excellent question. Thanks for asking it. !!!I am not a lawyer!!! The contract reads: "The Federal Republic of Germany, represented by the Federal Ministry of Defense, the latter represented by The Bundeswehr University, Munich 85577 Neubiberg" (yada-yada-yada) The contract is between a U.S. corporation and the federal government. It has to be legal, because the German Army uses some American Weaponry (e.g. the M82 sniper rifle). And as stated in the FAQ: This has been done before - numerous times.
- gknoy 14y agoI think that the GP is calling attention do the word "treaty" versus "contract".
- hiddenfeatures 14y agoOh... I see. Thanks for pointing that out. That's just a wrong translation. Sorry for that. The German word is "Vertrag" - which can be translated as "contract" as well as "treaty". EDIT 1: I'll update the FAQ regarding this. EDIT 2: Then again... I won't, because I am no longer able to :-)
