星期一, 2007年4月23日
試圖驅逐朝向歐洲腐敗調查的法律專家 大衛Leigh和Rob Evans 英國隱蔽地設法驅逐世界的主要反賄賂監視人的頭防止部長批評,并且英國的最大的武器公司, BAE,監護人學會了。努力去除標記Pieth來,因為他的組織爬上它的對英國的政府的決定進行調查殺害主要詢問入指控BAE支付巨型的賄款登陸沙特武器交易。 英國的外交官尋求去除Pieth,主持經濟合作與開發組織反腐敗監視人的瑞士法律專家教授(經濟合作與發展組織),要求他是太坦率的。 在經濟合作與發展組織會議上在上個月巴黎,英國的官員設法停止Pieth教授演講他宣佈他的代辦處将舉辦正式詢問入政府的決定終止BAE調查的新聞招待會。 他們私下然後簡報了其他外交官介入與經濟合作與發展組織,說應該去除他。 當那無法,競選反對他繼續了沒有減退以更加進一步的渠道怨言。 但對英國的外交官的品行的關心過濾了回到Pieth教授,昨天證實他知道嘗試去除他。 「我知道英國的大使當時請求行動被採取反對我」,他說。 pieth教授拒绝詳盡闡述,但他被明白私下是憤怒的在他被惡意攻擊的方式。 一個來源在增加的經濟合作與發展組織: 「英國的代表寄發到巴黎閹割[監視人],并且保證他們沒有公開地說什麼。 他們發生了故障并且不是喜悅的。 他們有些表現了不會是不恰當的在拳擊台」。 英國最近幾星期要求經濟合作與發展組織官員應該防止做所有未來聲明關於BAE事例,當詢問是持續的時。 但請求擊中了一個磚牆。 經濟合作與發展組織來源認為: 「英國沒有支持從任何人在此」。 經濟合作與發展組織,天使Gurr的主任?a,也相信英國鼓勵不正當競選反對他。 Last Friday he was accused in a British magazine of giving a job to his daughter, getting free football tickets, and spending ?733,000 (?500,000) to refurbish his Paris flat in what was described as “the poshest bit of the swanky 16th arrondissement”. The article in the Economist quoted an unnamed north European ambassador expressing fears that “the staid old body [OECD] … may drift into dangerous waters” under Mr Gurr?a, the former finance minister of Mexico. Following the allegations, Mr Gurr?a issued a combative statement, saying that he was under UK media attack by “innuendo, gossip and partial truths”. “It is no surprise that this attack occurs at this time,” he added. Britain’s ambassador to the OECD, David Lyscom, admitted yesterday that he had talked off the record to the Economist but added: “The UK had absolutely nothing to do with planting the story.” The UK partly controls OECD purse-strings, and also has the power to veto Prof Pieth’s reappointment, due next January. Sensitivity over the OECD inquiry has become more acute since its 36-strong panel announced last month detailed plans to mount a fresh official inspection of Britain because of the manner in which the BAE inquiry had been halted. It also rebuked the UK for failing to keep its promises to modernise its inadequate corruption laws, under which no one has yet been prosecuted. The UK also faces a legal challenge in London. Two campaign groups, the anti-corruption group The Cornerhouse and the Campaign Against the Arms Trade, filed detailed pleadings last week alleging that Britain had broken the treaty banning corrupt payments by companies to foreign politicians and officials.
