美国引发COVID-19的诉讼
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)不仅涉及国际法问题,也涉及受影响国家的国内法问题。在2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行期间,国家豁免原则是法律问题之一。在泰国,许多针对外国的诉讼挑战了国家豁免原则。清迈地方法院在判决书中表示,尽管围绕新冠肺炎疫情的争议不断,但对于泰国餐馆老板与美国之间的损害赔偿纠纷,法院没有管辖权。该判决的主要含义是泰国接受了习惯国际法下的国家豁免原则。本研究简要解释了与本案有关的主权豁免理论,总结了事实并分析了该判决在国际法下的潜在后果©2020,Yijun Institute of international law版权所有
