Dear Sir,

I thank you most sincerely for your letter of october 2nd, 1996 in which

you express the importance you attach to the establishment of an International Criminal Court.

I can assure you tha Belgium is among those countries for which progress in this domain is essential. As such, Belgium has actively supported the holding of a Diplomatic Conference in 1998, and will continue to do so.

Sincerely yours,
