Not as far as I can see.
I need to tell you that I think we will need to postpone the Commissioner, press conference, so the press conference of Commissioner Brunner,
to probably around 2 o'clock, because the VTC is still ongoing,
so we were expecting it to end earlier.
But, this is why we'll need to reschedule by, I think, approximately 1 hour.
We will, of course, send an updated media advisory, but I just wanted to let you know already,
that it's gonna be moved to around 2 o'clock.
No other questions for us today as far as I can see. Not in the press room, not online.
With that, I think it brings us to the end of this midday press briefing.
As I just said,
we will be back with Commissioner Brunner to be expected around 2 o'clock and then for our next midday on Thursday. Goodbye.
