And it is to be welcomed that criteria such as human rights, democracy, rule of law, and good governance are more firmly anchored in this new treaty than they were previously, and that earlier colonial relations no longer shape most of our relations to quite the same extent, rather, we now set greater store by these political criteria in this respect.
Og det er fint, at kriterier som menneskerettigheder, demokrati, retsstatsprincipper og good governance er forankret stærkere i denne nye aftale end hidtil, at tidligere koloniale forbindelser ikke længere udgør størstedelen af vores forbindelser, men at disse politiske kriterier har fået større vægt her.
