00:00That's it.
00:01Okay.
00:02All right.
00:03Well, let's start with that since you started with that.
00:05Just very briefly, you said that the actions, the announcement on television and cancellation
00:12of the flights of the staff call into question the legitimacy and credibility of the investigation.
00:20Do they call those into question for the entire court?
00:26We are just referring to the actions the prosecutor has taken.
00:28The entire court hasn't acted.
00:30The prosecutor has taken this initial action.
00:31We're going to see what the next step is.
00:33But certainly it calls into question the investigation that he has conducted and the action he has
00:38taken when you see him short circuit a process that was underway to gather facts, which is
00:43what you expect any prosecutor, any investigator to do when they're considering pursuing such
00:47a case.
00:48Okay.
00:49And so are you going to do anything about this or are you going to wait until the judges
00:54actually either approve or deny the applications?
00:59I don't have any announcements to make today.
01:00Obviously, we've made clear that we reject this action by the prosecutor.
01:03We're reviewing his initial statement and I don't have anything further to announce.
01:07Okay.
