So, kind of the way you put it there, a specific direction, I would say no.

Whenever we're imposing tariffs or doing deals, the purpose of the trade program is to reshore American manufacturing and protect American food security.

It's really about jobs and increasing wages, which we've seen over the past few months.

When it comes to prices, the president is undertaking a lot of other actions, you know,

energy policy, tax policy, regulatory, gas prices are down, etc.

So we don't see the trade policy really as driving prices, we see it as driving jobs.

So there are two layers to the TikTok deal.

One is the private sector layer, where the private parties are concluding a deal.

And then there's a layer of government approvals between the United States and China.

And so my conversations with the Chinese government over the past few months, as you mentioned, have covered a variety of issues.

One of them has been TikTok.

Back at our discussions in Madrid,

We came to an essential agreement that if the private parties came to agreement that the Chinese would approve it.

So we expect approval by the government of China in alignment with that agreement we reached earlier this year.

I would say with the H-200 export control issues, those really are standalone.

That was not a negotiated outcome in the United States with respect to export controls.

Those are not something that are really subject to negotiation.

Those are national security and commercial decisions made by the federal government.

So that's

kind of standing on its own.
