The first obstacle in any is to identify what the problems are. If you can't even agree on what the problems are, you can't make progress. So I do think that what you saw in this meeting over the last day and a half and what I hope you'll see in the leaders' meeting is a universal recognition that on issues like critical minerals and supply chains and freedom of navigation and these are issues that all of us should be, food security, these are issues that every nation on earth should be concerned about. Now what you saw in the back and forth, of course, And fourth, of course, is that nation states argue about what are the causes that are creating those problems is that nation -states argue about what are the causes that are created. and they're arguing about how to solve them. But I think the first step is at least some universal acknowledgement that freedom of navigation matters, that critical minerals matters, that supply chains matter, that food security matters, not just to the countries at the table, but to countries around the world. And I do think we have that. Now, obviously, there's going to be a lot of work that goes into determining, you know, how we solve some of these problems. And some of them, frankly, are being challenged by very acute challenges, like the war between Russia and Ukraine, like the conflict in the Middle East, like unrelated conflicts, but nonetheless ones we see, for example, like in Sudan, and the one between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda. And some of them, frankly, are being challenged by very acute challenges like the war between So there are some regional conflicts as well. But at least coming to an understanding about what the problems are is important, because at least it lays the predicate for what you seem to want to be talking about. Of course, I wouldn't pretend to you today that we are close to finding universally accepted solutions to these problems. But I do think that among the G20 represented here are countries that are working together to solve some of them, particularly in the realm of supply chains and critical minerals.
