Do Political Developments Threaten International Legal Collaborations?

Abstract

As a lawyer who started her career in the Ankara office of a global law firm in the early 2000s, international collaborations have always been my norm.

Energy investments I worked on extensively required the application of laws from many different countries from a project’s development stage to its completion and commercial life. This required knowing many legal systems simultaneously, particularly the law of the project country and different laws that would apply to financing agreements, EPC contracts, O&M contracts, and agreements between project partners.
