U r filing now? Just wondering. Anyway the date is May 7th 1999 with a declaration refering to the right the French constitution give the french authorities to bare the national minorities to speak their language, organize themselves to protect their heritage and so on... clearly refusing the call for understanding and tolerance as well as the commonly accepted need for the legal framework (FCNM) protection for the most exposed and at risk. Although at the last meeting, he said that was the least of his problems since it was so obvious that the principles referred to were distorted to serve less glorious objectives it wouldn't abuse the court. The historic responsibility a state has towards the population from which it took away the right of self determination can't disappear under a principle banner clearly undermining their short and long term interests.
