SECRETARY RUBIO: Thank you. We'll have more to say about that later on today. (Inaudible.) Ambassador Witkoff's on his way back now. We - I just got off the phone with him a few minutes ago. We'll have some other discussions throughout the day, and then hopefully there'll be some announcements here fairly soon. Maybe positive, maybe not. We'll see.

Thank you.
