Coming back to the other point Mr. Knauer made about procurement, we have heard from the Irish Department that Ireland is engaging in the joint procurement component of SAFE. That joint procurement can also include joint procurement with non-EU countries where there is a security and defence agreement. Will Mr. Knauer confirm that? We know Ukraine is currently included and it is possible for the United States or Israel to be included. Is it the case that we could find ourselves involved in joint procurement - we already potentially are - in relation to an active conflict situation?
