The
importance
attributed
to
the
factor
of
the
"
rule
of
law
"
in
paragraph
34
of
the
Court
's
Judgment
is
much
exaggerated
.
That
element
,
weighty
though
it
is
,
is
mentioned
only
incidentally
in
the
Preamble
to
the
Convention
.
What
chiefly
actuated
the
contracting
States
was
not
concern
for
the
rule
of
law
but
humanitarian
considerations
.
