No, we're going to have presence in Venezuela as it pertains to oil because we have to have. We're sending our expertise in. So you may need something. Not very much, but no, We're going to be taking out a tremendous amount of wealth out of the ground, and that wealth is going to the people of Venezuela and people from outside of Venezuela that used to be in Venezuela, and it goes also to the United States of America in the form of reimbursement for the damages caused us by that country. So I want to thank you all very much. Thank you. Thank you. Mr. Unless it's a bad question, in which case I'll go one word. It's about Putin. (54:27–54:45)
