I would agree with what Dennis is saying. I can say that now, because I'm not part of the government anymore.
You always have to understand what your leverage is. Right now it's in the context of a bilateral relationship. By allowing the U.K. to accede before having completed the necessary elements of a bilateral problem, you are ceding some of your leverage.
There are other countries that want to accede to CPTPP, such as Korea. We already have a bilateral agreement with Korea. It would make some sense to do that, because bringing them into CPTPP would be relatively simple. It is going to be much more complicated with the U.K. Again, one understands the geopolitical imperative that's involved with this, but at the same time it does put our beef exporters at a disadvantage. You have to weigh one against the other at the end of the day, and we need to have some leverage, quite frankly.
