negotiation. wouldn t want to get into too much detail, but we have a good team. it s i think we re very experienced a this now. you probably know we ve brought well over a dozen people home in the last few months. so no matter whoat s happening, we re going to find a way to overcome and we will bring paul whelan home. cnn has reported to get paul, they ve focused on who s in prison in germany for the murder of a georgian citizen in berlin. a targeted assassination. not going to ask you to comment on specifics, obviously, but is it even possible for the u.s. government to secure the release of somebody else held in a third country? i would imagine that where there s a will, there s a way, but as you said, right now, that s not on our agenda. it s not on our to do list. we are going to keep on pushing forward. just as reported by kylie, we had a meeting today which elizabeth whelan was included.
