Thanks.

So let me say one thing.

I think it's important not to stop talking about the Ukrainians and the Gazas, because what happens there in those two conflicts set the precedent for other places.

And I say this in relation to the principle of non-aggression.

So when I think about that and I think about other territorial expansionist-type conflicts, the reference point for us is Ukraine, that what you let go there enables other precedent-setting-type interventions.

Gaza, again, in terms of mass expulsion, of displacement, of the weaponization of food,

of watching war crimes being committed or crimes against humanity, again, it's important to center our attention on those two things.

But you're right that below those two conflicts that are at the heart of media and diplomatic attention, the list

of conflicts that are off the radar or deprioritized, but don't grab the same degree of attention are quite long.

So if I look at it from region to region, I look at Haiti, for example, where I think a year ago,

A year and a half ago, a number of us would have said that the idea of an international police force that didn't have the necessary financial and political backing from the US or Canada or even from the region inevitably meant that we needed to think through another model.

for bringing peace around in Haiti.

And then another set of conflicts, another region that's, of course, top of everybody's mind is on the African continent from the Sahel to Sudan.

We've got an interesting development taking place in the Great Lakes.

We never imagined in, for example, that the United States would get engaged in the way that it's been absorbed now.

And you saw the two presidents there signing a peace agreement on the White House.

At the same time, the rebels were still

advancing in pace and support.

Rwanda and DRC, particularly in eastern DRC.

And when I say to you, Ian, that it's important to keep Ukraine at the shadow, at the back of our minds, it's because that is also at one level of our territorial grab there.
