It's not just my office, Mr. Genuis. It's also our office in Geneva, which is very involved in the issue of what's happened to the Tamils.
I have been very involved with this issue since my work at the Forum of Federations, going back to the end of the last century, so this has been a long time coming.
There are two questions around recognition. One is whether we describe things as a genocide in our speeches and in our comments. The answer is yes. The second is that the official or formal recognition of a genocide is something that takes place between state parties at the ICJ, the International Court of Justice, as you well know.
The UN does not normally make a declaration in the General Assembly with respect to that question, but it is something that we do not hesitate to mention in our speeches, whether it's to do with the situation affecting the Tamils, the situation affecting the Uighurs or many other situations with which—if I may say so, given our friendship over the years—both you and I are very familiar.
Yes, it is something that we discuss on a frequent basis.
