I think there are two things.
There needs to be Canadian coordination with our European and British allies. We're seeing that play out right now. The Europeans are actually trying to provide a distinct regional policy that the U.S. is pushing back on. We're seeing that right now with the attempted appointment of a new high representative in Bosnia. That's number one.
For number two, as we spoke about a few minutes ago, Canada does actually have a self-interest in the region. It's not just that there are large western Balkan diaspora communities that have significant economic investments in the region and that would be interested in seeing greater engagement by Canada. It's also a potential market for Canadian energy firms and Canadian construction firms. I would also specifically highlight Canadian defence production. Roshel, which is an APC producer out of Ontario, if I'm not mistaken, has been providing APCs for a number of local governments. Canadian industrial presses are being sold in the region to help munitions firms get off the ground. This is something that Canada can do a lot more of.
