lpv:translated text	". Today the House approved a motion protesting against the recent American law exempting American personnel from the jurisdiction of the new International Criminal Court, even if they are accused of genocide and war crimes. There can be no doubt whatsoever that this bill degrades the basic principles of international law and illustrates the arrogant, martial, world-dominating, imperialist profile of the USA. However, every well-meaning person must be wondering: 1. Has the ΕU only now remembered the principles of international criminal law? Why did it not apply them when it joined with the USA in bombing Yugoslavia and, after 11 September, in declaring "war on terrorism" and Afghanistan, when it said "we are all American"? 2. Which principles it and the USA applied when setting up the International Criminal Tribunal, which is illegal under the UN Charter, in order to try President Milosevic and anyone else who resisted American and NATO intervention? 3. Whether the leaders of the EU and NATO will be brought before this Court for their crimes in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and anywhere else in the future? 4. Whether this Court will perhaps eventually be used to try those who resist the new imperialist order? Because of these concerns, the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece are unable to vote in favour of the motion."@en1
