and as we have seen in all of the united nations general, assembly votes that have been taken at china. either abstains or even votes against . so i think very unlikely that china would go along with such a move. but the move clearly would be a symbolic in the sense that it would further isolate russia and in that sense it biden also said yesterday in response to a question at one of his press conferences that when we sanction russia, we're not looking simply to deter it. in the short term, we are essentially declaring these are our norms and they don't and violations a don't occur with impunity. violations will be sanctioned, punished. and i think that's very much what this suggestion is about to say to russia. you start a war. you are not any longer. a member of this illustrious club. yeah, indeed. but we are still waiting for that press conference. melinda, we've been talking about this flurry of activity that there was in brussels yesterday with the back to back meetings of the of nato, the g 7, and e. u. a leader is summit as well. let's take a look back at our recap now of what e
