Okay, thank you for your answer. Your colleague and Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport is listed as the keynote speaker at an arms fair in Cardiff to be held next year. This event will involve the sale of weapons to regimes with appalling human rights records that are involved in serious armed conflicts, including Saudi Arabia, a country that were it not for its oil interests would have been regarded as a state sponsor of terrorism, as any honest analysis would conclude. Can you explain how your colleague's explicit endorsement of this bazaar of brutality is compatible with compliance with human rights obligations?
