INSISTIR, INSISTIR E INSISTIR NUM CESSAR-FOGO

«Between the “eastward expansion of Nato” and the “right of a sovereign state to decide its arrangements” there may appear to be no compromise. But all brokered cessations of hostilities begins with such irreconcilables. A sophisticated, if not sophistic diplomatic culture that includes China should now be straining all its resources to devise, as a minimal first move and with all the ingenuity and compassion it can muster, the terms of a ceasefire. Without the attempt we will be condemned to watch mass death up close – and we will never forgive ourselves.»

Ian McEwan, num texto publicado no Guardian.
