Chair, I'm here to talk about IPS, and I think that's a good example of how we are being valuable to allies. We are very valued in the region, as both partners and allies, and yes, on AUKUS, we're not in pillar one. We're looking at how we can contribute to pillar two, but everything I just described in IPS is about working with regional partners, and we're wanted in the region. We're valued in the region and we're contributing in the region.
