lpv:translated text	". I would like to say just one word, Mr President, in answer to a point that many speakers have mentioned, which is the announcement by the United States that they are suspending their military assistance to countries that refuse to enter into agreements exempting Americans from the provisions of the agreement on the International Criminal Court. That this news does not surprise us does not mean that we do not regret it and even – as the Presidency of the Council said just now – condemn it. However, we are also pleased to see that many countries have been able to resist the pressure that they have been under. I think that the courage shown by those countries in working towards the success of the agreement on the International Criminal Court deserves both our respect and our admiration. I will finish by saying that once again, the pressure that those countries are under is all the more inappropriate, all the more incomprehensible, inappropriate because it is incomprehensible, given that the Statute of the Court provides a means to respond to the American concerns, which, in certain respects, we can understand just as many of you do. Why, when solutions exist are they relentlessly trying to go further? This attitude can only leave us all with doubts."@en1
