I thank the ambassador for his comprehensive overview of his job and what will, hopefully, happen in Addis Ababa. We hope that conference is successful and that the countries attending it will achieve the development goals. What is important is the people in the countries concerned. As stated by the ambassador, the first of the three very high level conferences is the one on financing, which is important and which will be followed by the New York and Paris conferences. We wish all involved in the conferences well. I again thank the ambassador for attending today's meeting and hope to see him again in the near future.
