i have to say, to thank that over two years they could meet the goal of having a constitutional loya jirga which have certain requirements that need to be met as opposed to what is called a traditional jirga. that cannot amend the constitution. constitutionala loya jirga is not to amend the constitution but whether to create a position where prime minister. for me that off does not seemed to be a fatal flaw as long as there remains a degree of consensus in the body politic that that is an acceptable path forward. so far that is the case. the national unity government is always going to be, as ron said, a difficult proposition. i remain convinced that there is not any better alternative to that and to making that political process work. they will need a lot of help from friends as well as internally to do that, but they are now after delay, like , theyhing, has entailed are now on a path that has a way forward to hold a parliamentary election and get to the constitutional loya jirga. we need to encourage them to move down that path. on their own doing. >> thank you. let me mention the rest
