Hvis Europa vil tage sig selv alvorligt, skal det gå hårdt ind for Straffedomstolen og også sige til USA, at det nok er vores vigtigste allierede, men at netop en sådan allieret i den frie verden har pligt til at tage retten alvorligt, også når det kunne være ubekvemt for ham selv.
If Europe wants to take itself seriously, it must fight for this criminal court and must say to the United States of America that they are indeed our most important ally, but that just such an ally has a duty within the free world to take the law seriously, however uncomfortable it may find it.
