Statement by M. Nicolas SARKOZY, President of the Republic, on Lebanon following the adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1757
Wednesday, May 31st 2007
I welcome yesterday's adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1757 establishing a tribunal of an international character for Lebanon. This is an important decision for Lebanon and for all Lebanese. It is not the victory of one side over another, but that of justice over impunity.
The establishment of the Tribunal signals the beginning of a process which will allow all Lebanese to rejoin the path of reconciliation and unity. They should know that they will always be able to count on France, who will continue to commit over the long term to help Lebanon.
The Lebanese Parliament can still ratify this decision. The Lebanese have all asked for truth and justice so that past crimes do not remain unpunished.
