Rolf ClaessenHOST

Peter BergGUEST
First of all, I think I need to correct you, it was May 2025, so not that long as a standing precedent.

Peter BergGUEST
I think the question isn't anymore whether or what happens if we don't get that strategy.

Peter BergGUEST
The question is rather how good and comprehensive for reaching that national IP strategy will be.

Peter BergGUEST
And if it's just not enough from an industry perspective, I would say, then we adjust afterwards.
