Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I also want to thank you for your testimony, which is so important. I am sure your statement will no doubt help us a great deal in the study we are conducting.
I have three brief questions, but I'm going to share some of my time with my colleague Mark Eyking, who also wants to ask a question. A number of reports concern the culture of impunity that exists in a number of countries. What do you think that we members and our government can do to put a stop to this political situation that exists in a number of countries where there are conflicts?
My second question will be brief. I don't know whether you're ready to comment on the new Shi'a Personal Status Law in Afghanistan.
My third and final question also concerns women. It's about honour crimes in Afghanistan, Pakistan and a number of countries like that. Perhaps you can talk a little about that.
