Straightforward prosecution, by due process, of the murderers and assassins who are threatening the very existence of democracy, and above all the long-overdue creation, together with the United Nations, of a special criminal court with a view to enabling Cambodian and international lawyers to work together in order to ensure that those who have committed crimes against humanity can finally be brought to justice and duly punished: in this way, after a bloody and turbulent past, the country can at long last find stability, underpinned by the rule of law, which will enable it to become an important partner of our European Union.
Ce tribunal doit permettre aux juristes cambodgiens et internationaux de travailler ensemble pour veiller à ce que ceux qui ont commis des crimes contre l’humanité soient enfin traduits en justice et dûment punis. De cette manière, après un passé sanglant et mouvementé, le pays pourra enfin parvenir à une stabilité, soutenue par l’État de droit qui lui permettra de devenir un partenaire important de notre Union européenne.
