I think that answers the question. We have confirmed that if that is the national policy of a country, it can choose to spend this money on cluster munitions and landmines. Of course, the key concern in the case of Ireland is the investment piece. We will be asked to collectively contribute to the guarantee. If one of these countries that chooses to invest heavily in landmines or cluster munitions were to default, it would be underwritten by the EU budget and all contributors to the EU budget effectively contribute to the underwriting of these loans. That is correct, is it not?
