sentence which - as pointed out in the earlier part of this Dissenting Opinion - is shown by the presence of the words “In particular” (notamment) to be a detailed application of the general principle laid down in the sentence which precedes it. [128] The examination of the text of the Declaration taken as a whole therefore gives no confirmation to the view that it was the intention of the first paragraph of Article 5 to confer an unconditional right. [129] In the opinion of the undersigned, there are no sufficient reasons for discarding the natural meaning of the words employed in the second sentence of paragraph 1 of Article 5. To interpret the provision as meaning that it confers an unconditional right not merely runs counter to the natural sense of the words but disregards the explanation of the corresponding provision of the Polish Treaty as given in the Clemenceau letter, namely, that it is a prohibition of discrimination. Furthermore, this interpretation takes no sufficient account of the events leading up to the preparation of the text of the Declaration, in particular of the fact that the Greek Government asked for the insertion of a provision which would have conferred an unconditional right and made this request upon the ground that it was necessary in the case of Albania to go beyond the usual provisions of a minority treaty, and of the fact that the Council, instead of inserting the Greek proposal, used a wording on the same lines as that adopted in other minority treaties. [130] For these reasons the first question put to the Court should, in the opinion of the undersigned, be answered in the affirmative. (Signed) Cecil J. B. Hurst ( ,, ) M. Rostworowski.
