George, coming to you, the NATO Article V side of things, the uh the mutual defense pact.
I mean, NATO was built on quite a solid foundation, I suppose.
It was uh an anti-communist alliance that wanted to stop communism rolling into Western Europe and the rest of the world.
It was it was agreed not long after the continent had fought a major war.
That was fresh in their minds.
Uh we have of
course now, many years later, have many discussions around how viable, how how believable that mutual defense pact is.
We we hear every other day about of stories about how Vladimir Putin might want to test that.
How viable do you think this is for in in the Middle East?
These countries have have not always seen eye to eye.
They're not necessarily united against a common ideology like communism.
Well.
Is it gonna be believable to to those in the region?
Yeah, the the the the way this ripples out is is really quite uh extraordinary but in terms of the those who are affected.
