提前释放条款将得到修订的迹象涉及到塞尔维亚10年前发起的倡议，该倡议呼吁在塞尔维亚境内服前南问题国际法庭对其国民宣布的刑期。这项倡议的动机是我国决心承担执行判决的责任。惩罚的目的除其他外，还包括让被惩罚者重新融入社会。如果这些人在遥远的国家服刑，而他们不懂这些国家的语言，加上亲友几乎不可能探视，那么很难指望能够实现这个目的。
The indications that the early release provisions will be amended touch on Serbia’s initiative, launched 10 years ago, calling for serving, in Serbia, the sentences pronounced to its nationals by the ICTY. The initiative is motivated by the resolve of my country to take up the responsibility for the enforcement of the sentences. The purpose of punishment includes, inter alia, the resocialization of the punished persons. It is hard to expect that this purpose will ever be achieved if these persons serve their sentences in faraway countries whose language they do not understand and in which visits by friends and relatives are all but precluded.
