American Trap
Аннотация: This is the story of a man caught in the middle
of a huge American destabilising operation, illustrating the secret
economic war that the United States is waging against developed
nations across the world. In 2014, France lost part of the control
of its nuclear power plants to the United States. Frédéric
Pierucci, former senior executive of one of Alstom's subsidiaries,
found himself at the heart of this state scandal. His story goes to
the very heart of a $12 billion thriller that illustrates the
secret economic war that the United States is waging in Europe. And
after being silenced for a long time, he has decided, with the help
of journalist Matthieu Aron, to reveal all. In April 2013, Frédéric
was arrested in New York by the FBI and prosecuted for a bribery
case, despite not being involved at all. The US authorities locked
him up for more than two years - including 14 months in a very high
security prison. In doing so, they forced Alstom to pay the biggest
penalty ever imposed by the United States and to give up areas of
control to General Electric, Alstom's biggest American competitor.
Frédéric's story unpacks how the United States is diverting the law
and morality and using corporate law as an economic weapon against
its own allies. One after the other, some of the world's largest
companies are being actively destabilised to the benefit of the US
Treasury, in acts of sabotage that seem only to be the beginning of
what's to come..
