translate English to French: The Council is more or less divided into two camps. One camp comprises the smaller countries, which take a far bolder approach to this issue, while the other comprises the larger countries, which insist very strictly on such formal requirements and therefore take a less liberal view of this matter.
Au Conseil, nous avons pratiquement deux camps: celui des petits pays, qui se montrent nettement plus vaillants, et celui des grands pays, qui sont très attentifs à ces conditions formelles et se montrent donc moins empressés.
