Thank you.
I may split my time with Mr. Chong. I thought Ziad was going first.
Thank you so much, Mr. Silver. Thank you for the support of your organization. Make sure that you give Professor Cotler our best. His leading-edge work on the Magnitsky sanctions will always be immortalized in Parliament. We will always recognize how hard he's worked in support of and standing up for human rights, as well as how he's such a strong leader. He's an inspiration to each and every one of us.
I'm glad you brought up the importance of why we want to make sure that we shine the spotlight on prisoners of conscience and human rights defenders, as the department likes to call them.
Can you talk more about what's happening with hostage diplomacy, which we're starting to witness from China and others? Why is it important that we continue to have this transparent reporting to ensure that this type of practice stops?
