 As the I-ACtHR said, “[i]t is a well-established principle of international law that unequal treatment towards persons in unequal situations does not necessarily amount to impermissible discrimination. Legislation that recognizes said differences is therefore not necessarily discriminatory”. Cf. Saramaka People v. Suriname, supra note 11, para. 103. See also Yatama v. Nicaragua, supra note 49, para. 225. In the same line of thought, see Case of Thlimmenos v. Greece, 6 April 2000, ECtHR, Reports of Judgments and Decisions, No. 34369/97, p. 11, para. 44.

 In the views of the Court, “[t]he culture of the members of the indigenous communities directly relates to a specific way of being, seeing, and acting in the world, developed on the basis of their close relationship with their traditional territories and the resources therein, not only because they are their main means of subsistence, but also because they are part of their worldview, their religiosity, and therefore, of their cultural identity”.
