These are decisions which we make together. In the case of Irak, Tony and I discussed the matter and decided to no longer send in any journalists there because we could not guarantee their safety. Last fall, out of three reporters sent to Afghanistan, two were women: Alexandra Szacka and Céline Galipeau. The third was Frédéric Nicoloff. We maintained a constant link with them, specifically to make sure that they were not taking risks that were uncalled for. I can assure you that as information manager, it is sometimes difficult for me to tell journalists to go out in the field, because I'm conscious of the responsibility involved.
