You heard in the first panel some discussion about the hopes and also some of the disappointments, but where the rubber meets the road is where this panel is about. Is about implementation. And as all of us know from 25 years of experience, it is one thing to give a good speech on the senate floor, it is another thing to get a missile silo closed in ukraine.
