关于合作，法国谨指出，每个国家都须配合余留机制搜寻、逮捕和移送卢旺达问题国际刑事法庭（卢旺达问题国际法庭）起诉的八名逃犯，并执行已发出的逮捕令。我们感到遗憾的是，一些国家没有尽其所能履行这一义务。法国一直在全力配合这一努力，每年都对余留机制多次就刑事问题提出的互助要求作出回应。关于卢旺达问题国际法庭已移交给法国司法当局的案件，自上次通报以来（见S/PV.8416）至今，法国最高法院，即最高上诉法院法院，于10月30日就穆尼耶什亚卡一案发布判决，即维持原判、驳回案件，使得该案宣告审结。法国重申其对审结布西巴拉塔一案的充分承诺。我们希望在不久的将来宣布该案的审判日期。
With regard to cooperation, France would like to point out that every State is required to cooperate with the Mechanism in the search for, arrest and transfer of the eight fugitives indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) and to execute the issued arrest warrants. We regret that some States are not doing everything they can to comply with that obligation. France has been fully cooperating in that effort by responding every year to the Mechanism’s multiple requests for mutual assistance in criminal matters. With regard to the cases that the ICTR has transferred to the French judicial authorities, the period since the last briefing (see S/PV.8416) has been marked by the conclusion of the Munyeshyaka case by the judgment issued on 30 October by the Court of Cassation, France’s highest court, which upheld its dismissal. France reaffirms its full commitment to bringing the Bucyibaruta case to a conclusion. We hope that a trial date for that case will announced in the near future.
