 I'd like to come back to some of that. Now Jean-Pierre. Well, thank you. As a Frenchman based in Asia for many years, my view may be a bit biased, because I'm more sensitive to the rise of China, to its growing assertiveness in the region, than if I were based in Paris or elsewhere in Europe, where of course the Ukraine war, the Middle East and Africa are much more pressing issues than what's going on in the Far East, what we used to call the Far East in Europe, which is the Indo-Pacific region. I have to say, the short answer to your question, Doug, is that I think the US has been and will remain more successful in the global north and global south, in aligning its allies and partners with it on China and the growing tensions in East Asia. John mentioned and I basically agree with him that NATO is a big factor of bringing together the Europeans and the Americans and the Canadians on an issue like China. I mean, the fact that China now is one of the issues discussed in NATO is an important move in the direction of more transatlantic coordination on East Asia and China. So that's the thing which I think we can't ignore. Another trend which has taken place even before this recent tension in Taiwan for some years is the fact that the European Union itself has moved away from the full kind of naive engagement with China to a much more balanced China policy. We know the three pillars of this policy now. One is economic cooperation. The other one is economic competition. And the third one, which is something which has shocked the Chinese when it appeared in 2019, was the idea of we are in a systemic rivalry with China. So China is a systemic rivalry, whatever it means. It means that we don't share the same political values, that we don't see the international order the same way. We don't abide by international law in the same manner, in particular, as far as the law of the sea is concerned, and many other aspects of international law. So I think here, in other words, China's growing power has brought together more than before the Europeans and the Americans on China. Now, it doesn't mean there are no differences. There are quite a number of friction, which we mentioned earlier today, like the trade war and how much shall we put sanctions on China, not only for human rights infringements like the question of Xinjiang, which on the Xinjiang issue, I mean, that was two years ago, for the first time, the Europeans with the Americans, the British and the Canadians decided to impose sanctions on some officials in Xinjiang, and that's what, for the European point of view and the European Union point of view, that was unprecedented. So those are changes which tend to bridge the gap between the Europeans and the Americans, on China. Now, if we look at East Asia, I think you mentioned Southeast Asia, which is, yes, of course, in a very difficult position, but just a word about Southeast Asia is that, of course, they can't publicly and openly criticize China, but they're very happy to have the U.S. around and to keep the U.S. around, all the way from the Vietnamese, of course, which are, you know, in a difficult version of the U.S. in a thousand years with the Chinese, but also with countries like Singapore, which are very happy to have the Americans in Tongi and in the Malacca Strait as well. So, but, and in addition to those countries, of course, you have countries in East Asia, like Japan, and we're going to talk about them in South Korea, which are also U.S. allies, and these U.S. alliances in the Indo-Pacific region have remained a factor of alignment in this position in regarding China. Now, of course, the burning issue, I mean, we may come back to that later, but it's a Taiwan issue, and I have to say what has triggered the growing tensions in the Taiwan Strait has been the, not only China's assertiveness, but also is more obvious haste to unify China, Taiwan with China, and that has been, to me, a major disabilizing factor in the region, because most of the countries in the region are attached to the status quo in the Taiwan Strait, and for the first time since, well, I mean, it started actually 10 years ago or less, more or less in 2013 when Xi Jinping decided that we can't leave this generation, this question unsolved and transmitted from one generation to another. So now we clearly, the China's policy towards Taiwan has been to mix much more carrots and stick and to use much more coercion against Taiwan in order to try to convince Taiwan to unify with China, but the problem with these policies is badly backfired, and actually rally a number of countries which are not that close to the US and to support the status quo in the Taiwan Strait. Now, we may come back later to the comparison between Ukraine and Taiwan. I would just say a word about the global south because, you know, the last 10 years I've worked quite a lot on China-Africa relations, I've done quite a number of field works in Africa, and clearly the Africans don't want to choose between the US and China, but one thing I will remind everyone, I mean, for the one coming from Africa they're very familiar with Afrobarometer, is that both China and the US are pretty popular in Africa in terms of, you know, favorable views that are more or less at the same level. 60% of the Africans are favorable of China, but also 58% of the Africans have favorable view of the US, much more than their view of, you know, much more positive view than their view of the former colonial powers. So, and they clearly don't want to choose. Even today, I think most countries in the South they think they can get away with this new so-called Cold War between the US and China and remain mutual and still benefit from cooperating with both sides. The problem with the, you know, talk about Africa is the fact that the US is much less present in Africa, and that the American diplomacy has deserted Africa, and that's been, I think, a big weak point of the Americans in that continent, and that's opened a boulevard, actually, to China, to becoming much more active from a diplomatic point of view, military point of view, but also with the BRI, the Belt and Road Initiative, economic point of view. So that's where we are now. Thank you very much. As a parent of diplomats who are self-professed Africanists, I recognize your last remark very clearly.
