Don't you understand the trick? If they acknowledge that they "stole" it, Mamut will then go to US and use it as a basis for his claims on the F5, which is like a million times bigger than this claim.

I imagine it's more complicated than that. Settlements can have terms (no admission of fault, etc), and claiming precedent across countries probably isn't straightforward.

Don't you think that these are not things that a person being asked to sign a paper under a gunpoint will think about?
