Why weren't the local powers already concerned enough to take the initiative to discuss the issue themselves, not to mention doing it in a more considerable, focused, and realistic manner than with a one-day summit?<br /><br />I'm glad to know they were thinking about it yesterday; I just hope they're still thinking about solutions to this problem today and tomorrow and Sunday and Monday, etc.Chris Peakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04459990969054956222noreply@blogger.com
