With respect, because I am going to run out of time and the Chair is very strict, the question I am going to ask is, as an investor who buys Israeli war bonds and wants to make an informed investment decision, is it a risk, in the view of the Central Bank, that there is a plausible case with regard to a breach of the Genocide Convention by Israel, and therefore, what could materialise after this case concludes is that investors funded breaches of the Genocide Convention or indeed genocide? Is it a risk?
