I shall not launch here into a description of the minutiae of the internal diplomacy between Geneva and Paris, between those in the field and their central authorities; as our former foreign minister Couve de Murville would have said, this would not be appropriate.
Bien sûr, je ne vous décrirai pas les aspects de diplomatie interne entre Genève et Paris, entre les hommes de terrain et leurs autorités centrales; comme l'aurait dit M. Couve de Murville, ce ne serait pas convenable.
