I think he has it spot-on.
What I would add is that we could have proactively gone behind the scenes with the African Union, because it has been engaged in that particular discussion. However, it was isolated in the international system, because there were so many tracks that were put in place. Number one would have been better engagement with the African Union, which could have actually forestalled some of them.
A broader point is the fact that we leave African countries without the most important thing, which is leadership. We leave it to nature to devise it. Just imagine setting aside the $3 billion that we spend on the African continent, for example, specifically for training the next generation of African leaders. You would see what a difference that would make in Sudan. We have to be proactive rather than reactive. That is the reason we have to move away from firefighting. It's too expensive, but because doing the long-term thing is not the sexiest thing, we don't invest in it.
What I'm saying is that we have to reposition ourselves to be more proactive and prevent some of these things from happening.
