But he warned: "I can assure you, we won't be putting money into a society which is not transparent and corrupt, and I suspect other countries won't either."

Huh?

Huh?

will --- if --- transparent and not corrupt
(ie. easily viewed and all on the up and up.)

won't -- if -- not transparent and is corrupt
(ie. hidden forces doing dishonest things.)

I can see how it might of looked like a bad double negative but it was not.
