Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank our witnesses for the very enlightening comments they are sharing with us.
Maybe you followed the discussions with the first panel where we talked about a palace coup. I would have liked to ask you about that. If you have any comments on it, please feel free to say them.
You have heard that, by saying it would never intervene in this conflict, the West has basically given Mr. Putin carte blanche to pretty much do as he pleases.
Again, feel free to answer my question if you like. Does this give him the opportunity to use chemical, bacteriological or even nuclear weapons?
Finally, Ms. Dembińska, given the scenario you mentioned and the fact that Russia has made sure to set up some kind of puppet state inside most of the former Soviet republics, whether it's Transnistria, South Ossetia or Donbass, do you feel that Mr. Putin will continue on to Moldova if he succeeds with his idea to have connectivity from Donbass to Odessa?
