And then when I look at sort of other regions, Asia, for example, Myanmar,
A few years ago, it was very much at the top of everybody's mind with the Rohingya crisis.
And you still have a military junta that is entrenched and is also at the centre of some of the most aggressive campaign against civilians.
And then in Europe, and we tend to talk about just Ukraine, but we have the makings, maybe,
of some kind of peace deal between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
As you'll remember, you know, Azerbaijan taking back Nagorno-Karabakh, but still a lot of tensions between them.
Those are the sort of other conflicts that are at the top of the international agenda that don't sort of get much attention in the way others are.
And then there is also the development on the South China Sea and also Taiwan at the back of everybody's rear view as well.
Look, that's an important question, Ian.
And of course, we are talking in an era where we're seeing significant backsliding in terms of the norms and the guardrails and the constraints that would normally hem bad behaviour or that would normally prevent this level of aggression, whether it's in Ukraine or elsewhere.
So the fact that the multilateral firewall exists
I mean, I've mentioned aggression, but even basic principles about good neighborly relationships and even about the role of the United Nations and peacekeepers.
The fact that heads of states or military junta's can, with a stroke of a pen, decide that the U.N.
must exit.
shows you how precarious international organizations are, their legitimacy, their trust.
The fact also, I mean, it's not unusual that those countries in the region that are the troublemakers are also brought to the table
to be peacemakers also.
So that's not a new and unusual fact.
But the fact that these countries themselves are shaping facts on the ground, determining the outcome of smaller countries is a cause for alarm.
Now, I'm also talking to you at a time where we are seeing some openings.
