democratic front sliding since chad's independence. chad has been ruled by the gun since independence, it has been ruled by people who took power, generally, by force. so, i think it's time to break that paradigm. i think it's time to put seats around the table for the on our political actors and to prioritize them. i don't think we can do this from the outside, i don't think we can impose this on chad. but we can listen to the overwhelming majority of chadians of goodwill, particularly the young people who don't have the memories of the elder generations who are calling for this. i think we need to empower, to the best extent possible, the unarmed political class, including civil society in modern chad. which i think is a bright spot in the political prospects of this country. >> thank you. thank you, mister chairman. >> thank you. senator markey. >> thank you mister chairman, very much. thank you miss brink for your long career and i think you're much needed and going to do a great job. and ukraine. can i touch on a little bit, if i
