Direct speech: “It is absolutely clear that we cannot be part of a structure that questions the role of the UN and current international law. This would be absolutely impossible for us – and not only for us, but also for the vast majority, at least of European states, as well as many others – for whom the UN and international law are the backbone of their foreign policy.”
