I would share the view that Alex has put forward a couple of times before the committee, which is that economic growth through liberalized rules-based trade and investment can contribute to alleviating poverty and create new wealth and employment opportunities for, in this case, Colombian citizens. We think that is a valuable tool, both from an economic perspective and in terms of governance and the broader issues that Alex has referred to before.
