«Lorsqu'une Puissance disposée à chercher une injuste querelle à une autre Puissance recevra les représentations du corps diplomatique étranger, faites au nom du droit international, il arrivera [...] rarement qu'elle fermera l'oreille à une pareille remontrance [...] il a parfois suffi des représentations du corps diplomatique pour faire cesser certains abus qui constituaient une violation du droit international».
