International Law Behind the Headlines - A podcast by American Society of International Law

In this episode we speak with Chimene Keitner, Fromm Professor of Law at Hastings and former Counselor at the State Department about the very unusual case of a foreign sovereign entity claiming immunity with regard to a subpoena from the Mueller investigation. Shrouded in extreme secrecy, the case raises interesting questions about the 1976 Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act and its connection to criminal, rather than civil, actions.
