    The government doesnt have to accept. If this proposal is going to knock out power for half your country and you accept that deal you should be thrown in prison.

      It looks like they are pushing back. But when you have neither nukes nor a drone fleet, there are limits to what you can say to a US company.

      no, how it works is the government accepts, the political leaders get rich, and anyone who fights this gets thown in jail.
