Mr. Minister, if we're talking about the categorization or the characterization of the mission, the purpose is to create a stable country, and I understand that. The mission is the mission of the military and the PRT. PRT was the mission, and the defence forces were there to assist the PRT.
Now it seems that defence has become the major element--in fact, contrary to what NATO said. In January, Major Andrew Elms, the British spokesman for the NATO force, said, and let me quote, “If you think of a policeman who's armed, but he does not go out looking for a fight, that's along the lines we're looking at in terms of the NATO mission”. Sir, that is not the mission we have today.
