Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I thank the minister for his answer. The opposition supports the government’s actions to date. I note there are reports today that mention criticisms from East Timor about the actions of the UN force immediately following the shooting of President Ramos-Horta. Can the minister provide details on the actions of the UN force in the immediate aftermath of the assassination attempt?
