I think the global compact is aimed at finding a balance between responding to a humanitarian need with 60-plus million people on the move in the world today, and not all of them are going to be able to go back. They need to have pathways to resettle in places that allow them to lead a decent life. At the same time, we need to balance that with the fact that we can't resettle 65 million people in other countries. We have to find ways to allow them to go home. That's where peace operations come into play in terms of facilitating that.
