In a worst-case scenario, therefore, the State, through this legislation, would be on the hook for €35 million to the European Investment Bank, €10 million for the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and €10 million through the Council of Europe Development Bank, amounting to €55 million. On top of that, we would be on the hook for, potentially, nearly €77 million under the 2022 MFA for Ukraine and, potentially, just over €63 million for the MFA from 2023 onwards in terms of interest rates. The potential exposure, therefore, would be about €195 million. Is that correct?
