I actually think there is a role we can play as long as we don't talk about it. That's one of the real challenges of foreign policy. There is in Parliament and there is in the media and in the broad public a desire to articulate what you are doing. Cuba is a perfect example of where our experience--our presence in Cuba over a long period of time--and the kind of expertise that we have developed are very carefully sought after by the Americans, and it can have significant effect, I believe, but not if we talk about it.
