I'd like to pursue, perhaps in more specific terms, what Mr. Volker, and I think Mr. Kramer agreed with him, referred to as keeping military options on the table.
I'd like to get down to something specific. Obviously there are NATO countries—and that's the context in which you spoke about it—who are nearby, but Ukraine itself is not a NATO country. What were you specifically suggesting in terms of messaging that appears to have been taken off the table that should be put back on the table? Does it go as far as to say that if Russians go into eastern Ukraine some kind of action could be triggered by NATO countries? I'd like to have something more specific based on what you've said.
Perhaps we can start with Mr. Volker, and then Mr. Kramer, please.
