retour à l'ordre républicain et pose les fondations d'une "France nouvelle". La fermeté et la rapidité avec lesquelles le général de Gaulle a rétabli l'autorité d'un gouvernement national permet d'éviter la mise en place de l'AMGOT (Allied Military Government for Occupied Territories), prévu par les Américains, qui aurait fait de la France libérée un État administré et occupé par les vainqueurs.

The Court ordered a cease-fire pending its final decision. The withdrawal of the military troops took place peacefully. In the other cases, the defendant state contests the Court jurisdiction or contests the compulsory nature of the order.

Some NATO states, notably France and Germany, have counted on public apathy about Afghanistan to increase their contributions to the mission, but indifference might turn into active hostility if spring and summer fighting results in an upsurge in military or Afghan civilian casualties and if a Dutchstyle debate spills over into other states contributing troops.
