defence of sovereignty

Rares sont ceux qui ne pensent pas qu'il faille défendre à la fois le principe de l'humanité et celui de la souveraineté.
At times, in a misguided defence of sovereignty, common expectations are thwarted in order to satisfy national interests that frequently are not of decisive importance.
Parfois, dans une mauvaise interprétation de la défense de la souveraineté, les attentes communes sont contrariées pour satisfaire les intérêts nationaux, qui souvent n'ont pas une importance décisive.
