I guess, just for the record, I'll leave it with the comment that this was covered in the media over in the U.K. as well. There's certainly a concern or perception in the U.K. media that “we” are carrying the burden. I suppose that if we don't address this, we'll have to be looking at NATO redefining itself as something other than a military alliance.
