Default Re: The heart of the matter: extradition

Good post and thanks. I hadn't considered the extradition aspect. Now that you've brought it to our attention I think that other countries will not tolerate the pursuit of their business people as criminals when the activity is legal in the host country. For instance I don't think the Brits would tolerate the U.S. attempts to extradite an exec from Party for breaking U.S. laws. The Brits might discourage the exec privately but I don't see the Brits allowing a public pursut of this. IMO it's political suicide for Brit pols. If Great Britain is the most likely to extradite I think the execs have little to worry about. However, I can understand why they're concerned.
