Chairperson, I am sure we have not been talking about two things that are completely unrelated. I have been talking about the rate of maternal mortality and what we are actually doing about it, on the whole continent, and that ministers of health met in Kigali because there is maternal mortality in all the countries on the continent and we do not accept that. As to whether, in light of this, we should not be celebrating, I will leave that up to the rest of the leaders on the continent to decide. I don't think it is for me to answer. Thank you.
