I thank Mr. Browder for his very powerful remarks and contribution in respect of the Magnitsky case and the circumstances surrounding it. It is very disturbing to hear these circumstances. I will now ask members to ask questions but because many members are present today, including Members representing the Council of Europe and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, OSCE, I ask them to confine themselves to asking questions rather than making lengthy remarks, because Mr. Browder has gone through the background to the case itself.
