Mr President, it is my personal view that, in this case, we must guard against one-sided judgments.

However, just as the parties to the conflict must allow and support an independent investigation, the international community must avoid making a one-sided judgment.

Once a judge has found reason to consider someone an alien terrorist without even hearing from him, the chance of upsetting that one-sided judgment would be near zero.

Like the President they were attacking, they blamed what they see as one-sided judgments of foreigners who, they said, set a higher standard of behavior for Serbs than for any of their neighbors.
