Absolutely. It's her area of expertise. She's a lawyer. I'm not, so I really respect that.

I agree with Sarah. I always refer, as a human rights defender, to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The right of an individual to security is granted in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and we can, all the time, refer to that. Also, there is the great umbrella of state sovereignty—other states are not allowed to intervene.
