Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Again, thank you, all, very much for being here, gentlemen. Thank you for sharing this information with us.
We have heard there has been excessive force used by the police and the military, that there has been tear gas fired indiscriminately and that there have been people being fired upon in their upper body region. One of the questions I want to ask a little more specifically is.... We've also heard that local journalists have been targeted. They've been assaulted. They've been stripped of their equipment by police, and they are not being respected. Of course, for Canadians and for parliamentarians, as we try to find out the information about what is happening on the ground, a press that can do its job is fundamental.
What can you tell us about that, please, Ambassador?
