Given the government's dishonourable cancellation of the LAND 17 self-propelled howitzer project, is it no surprise that the Koreans are insisting on the inclusion of the investor-state dispute resolution clauses in the free trade agreement to protect their industries from the sovereign risk of dealing with the Australian government? Is this derailment of the free trade agreement negotiations now jeopardising Australia's $770 million beef export market to Korea?
