It is much like what we talk about for some of our domestic policies. The longer we are there propping them up, the more we have the potential of creating a situation of dependency, where they are looking to the U.S. Government to fix their political problems, to fix their security problems and to fix their economic problems. I think we were very clear when we met with their parliamentarians and saying we are committed to stay with you and to provide you with the opportunity to fix your political problems, to fix your economic problems and your security issues. We cannot do that, because this is your country.
