Good morning, Mr. President.
The meeting with the three councilors is not a good idea, sir.
I don't want to be able to do it this afternoon, sir.
I'll try to follow up again with that, but that would be not very helpful.
Yes, sir.
It is.
My last three days, sir.
My last three days.
I'll see you.
Bye.
