International Law
Miga, a French company, sold hundreds of millions of dollars worth of
goods, much of it on credit, to various agencies of the Russian
government. The first deals were made with the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics (USSR), then, after the collapse of that government in 1991,
with the Federative Socialist Soviet Republic of Russia (RSFSR), the
successor government. The agreements called for binding arbitration of
any disputes at the Chamber of Commerce of Stockholm, Sweden, under
Swiss law, and subject to enforcement in court in New York. Following
failure to make payments, the arbitrator awarded Miga $275 million,
which Russia refused to pay. Miga brought suit in federal court in New
York to enforce the arbitration award.
