Madam Speaker, the availability of time or the place really wasn't conducive to a meeting. However, I did feel, because this was a problem and that the initial testing was to happen yesterday, that I should bring it to his attention that we felt very happy about his initial announcement and that we felt distressed that he was not able to carry out the commitment to cancel with the United States of America. All I did was suggest to him that it is a primary concern to us, that it is of immediate concern and that we were expecting some response. I did not go any further than that, Madam Speaker.
