the rest of the article talks why they should do this. Sounds as though the EU wants to play big brother.
The opening is intended to be ironic. There is no presence that either side is truly interested in justice or that the EU or anyone else is capable of adjudicating it. The article includes commentary highly critical of the EU report.
