在采取这项原则时，非盟成员国为自己确立了施政中问责制的最高标准。但更重要的是，它们承担了保护本大陆战争受害者的责任。显然，苏丹境内的局势需要某种及时、有意义、协调良好和有效的国际介入。
In adopting that principle, the AU member States set themselves the highest standards of accountability in governance. But, more importantly, they assumed the responsibility to protect the victims of war on the continent. Clearly, the situation in the Sudan merits some form of international engagement that is timely, meaningful, well-coordinated and effective.
