Thanks very much for that.

I want to take the remainder of my time to give you an opportunity to comment on something you raised in your opening remarks. You spoke along the lines of cracks in the values or unity of values around NATO.

If you take your comment just now and bring it into the current context of the Middle East and the Syria crisis, what comments do you have on the unity around the values that NATO was built on and the operational concerns that the Middle East in 2018, not 2003, still raises or carries?

See context to find out what was said next.
