The Completion Strategy

"This Tribunal will not be judged by the number of convictions which it enters, or by the speed with which it concludes the Completion Strategy which the Security Council has endorsed, but by the fairness of its trials.  The Majority Appeals Decision and others in which the Completion Strategy has been given priority over the rights of the accused will leave a spreading stain on this Tribunal's reputation." 

Judge David Hunt, the Milosevic case, 21 October 2003.
