I will highlight one final matter. It relates to ports. The way to do this is not to try to militarily force our way into Odesa. The way to do it is through negotiation. The UN has invested much time in it, as have Turkey, Moscow and Kyiv, to try to find a solution that can get ships out of Port in Odesa safely without allowing Russian ships in to conduct a military attack. I hope that plan will succeed. I think I have answered all the questions. I thank the Chair. I am under a bit of time pressure.
