Along with 11 other countries, Peru has been carrying on secret negotiations over the Trans Pacific Partnership Treaty (TPP). Some lawmakers and rights advocates have denounced the negotiations as an attempt by elite groups to violate national sovereignty. Many civil society organizations are concerned about secrecy, the weakening of environmental protections, rising medical costs due to intellectual property protections, and the right of corporations to sue entire countries. Rael Mora reports from Lima for teleSUR.
