It's an excellent question. I would complement the comments from my colleague from DND by pointing out that one of the priority areas for ASEAN, as a community and in working with Canada, is to be quite concrete around issues of inclusion and rights. One of the areas they've prioritized for the last several years, which we continue to work on very closely with them, is the area of women, peace and security. That is very concretely related to their concerns about inclusion and better outcomes in the training of the armed forces for a variety of things they would do.
I would say separately that we are very much committed to working with partners that share our values to address some of the more egregious and concerning human rights problems in the region. Some of them, the most acute, come to us through the civil war in Myanmar. We have been working with humanitarian funding, but also with tools to support NGOs that are strengthening civil society and strengthening their capacity to report, document and work towards justice and a conclusion to the civil war in Myanmar. None of that goes very easily, and it requires close partnerships with countries on the ground that know the region and know the relationships much better, so we have very active discussions with the broader ASEAN community.
