Thank you.
Interestingly, part of the debate within the alliance is exactly around that question: where is the emphasis across these three tasks?
I think if you were to speak to some allies from certain parts of Europe they would say, “Look, the focus absolutely has to be on collective defence. The threat hasn't gone away. It's all about there.” I think if you speak to countries like Canada, it's much more on the crisis management and its on the cooperative security part of this.
So I think finding that balance is something that the alliance is still trying to determine. Obviously, we don't want to have to choose between and amongst those three lines of operation because they're all extremely important.
We have put a lot of emphasis on the crisis management piece. I was remiss in not mentioning earlier that in the strategic concept work, one of the important things that Canada brought to that was this idea of a comprehensive approach, the comprehensive approach to crisis management, which is something that Canada has done for many years. You can't just deal with the military. You have to have the diplomatic. You have to have the development. You have to be in there before the crisis develops. This is something that Canada very much brought to the strategic concept discussion.
