When will mankind be convinced and agree to settle their difficulties by arbitration?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Do I believe in arbitration? I do. But not in arbitration between the lion and the lamb, in which the lamb is in the morning found inside the lion.
At all events, arbitration is more rational, just, and humane than the resort to the sword.
Mandatory arbitration clauses I think, more often than not, work to the detriment of working people.
We believe in resolving all disputes peacefully.
Compulsory arbitration is a practical instrument of pacification and, as such, it can and should be enacted by the Hague Conference.
I can guarantee you this, that more pension and benefit reforms which I will consider arbitration reform to be one of them, are things that when they come to my desk, they will be signed.
Great progress was made when arbitration treaties were concluded in which the contracting powers pledge in advance to submit all conflicts to an arbitration court, treaties which not only specify the composition of the court, but also its procedure.
I think most conflicts do end with negotiated settlements; some don't, but most do.
I can imagine no society which does not embody some method of arbitration.
Both President Obama and I shared the conviction that territorial and maritime disputes in the Asia Pacific region should be settled peacefully based on international law. We affirm that arbitration is an open, friendly and peaceful approach to seeking a just and durable solution.
