These are just some of the ideas we have working on with our Russian counterparts. I am sure that as this Workshop proceeds, we will have the opportunity to better define the key aspects of the elements I have outlined this morning. We are embarking on a very ambitious and difficult journey, but one that has many rewards at the end of the day. I challenge each of you as we move forward to think creatively and to work cooperatively. For my part, I will continue to further this group's agenda, which is to support a safer nuclear materials infrastructure that will enable our countries to manage our growing stockpiles of excess nuclear material in a safe manner. Thank you again for your attention and I look forward to working more closely with you as we initiate what I believe can be an endurign and successful relationship in the safe management of nuclear materials.
