Dle preşedinte, dacă opiniile actuale asupra pedepsei capitale s-ar fi aplicat în Europa în epoca Tribunalului de la Nuremberg, nu ar fi fost condamnaţi la moarte niciunul dintre criminalii nazişti judecaţi de acest tribunal, responsabili de moartea crudă a milioane de oameni nevinovaţi.
Mr President, if today ’ s views on capital punishment had been in force in Europe at the time of the Nuremberg Tribunal, none of the Nazi criminals who were tried by the tribunal, and who were responsible for the cruel deaths of millions of innocent people, would have been sentenced to death.
