La tesis de X era que el Contrato Marco formaba parte de una ******trama simulatoria******* urdida por Y con la firma, entre otros, de los siguientes contratos (a los que en adelante nos referiremos como los "Contratos de 1990-1991"):

Any help with this term would be much appreciated. UK English please

El Laudo dedica una buena parte de sus páginas a descartar el primer y principal motivo de oposición a la demanda de X formulado por Y , esto es, la supuesta *******simulación***** del Contrato Marco.

a made-up conspiracy


Explanation:
It's not real, but simulated, though the little bit of context doesn't indicate toward what end... It is a plot, an intrigue, to project a particular appearance—what Hindus call "maya" (illusion).
