Mr Andriessen still hoped, however, that reason and the rule of law would prevail, and that both sides would soon be taking their places at the negotiating table, which was what one would expect of partness fully aware of their obligations as well as their rights.
Je veux cependant garder l'espoir que la raison et le droit triompheront et que nous nous asseyerons tres bientot autour de la table de negociation comme il sied a des partenaires conscients de leurs droits et de leurs obligations.
