"Seychelles endorses and subscribes to the objectives of the Rome Statute. This ratification should be seen as further evidence of the commitment of the Government of Seychelles to peace, justice and respect for human rights, and to the values of all the peoples and nations of the world. We look forward to taking our part in the work of the ICC, and of the Assembly of the States Parties to the Rome Statute. We believe that all are equal before the law, and that the law should afford equal protection to all of us."
