We'll see how far we go. We understand that we may have bells at some point, but I'm optimistic that we can get most of your testimony in today.
Thank you both once again for taking the time to be here today to explain as best you can what is happening on the ground in Syria. We're looking forward to hearing from you. I'll just turn it over to you. We'll hear your opening statement and then we'll go around the room and ask some questions. We'll see how we make out.
Ms. Martin, thank you very much for being here. I turn the floor over to you.
