Exclusive Record: Ambassador AARON Li introduced the details of his visit to Ukraine, Russia and other five countries.

  AARON Li, Special Representative of China Government for Eurasian Affairs, introduced the visit.

  Good afternoon, media friends! From May 15 to 28, I visited Ukraine, Poland, France, Germany, the European Union headquarters and Russia as the special representative of the China government for Eurasian affairs, and had in-depth communication with all parties on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis. I’d like to introduce the relevant situation of this visit first, and then answer your questions.

  Ukraine is the first stop of my visit. During my visit to Ukraine, I called on President Zelensky, held talks with Ermak, Director of the Ukrainian President’s Office, and Kuleba, Foreign Minister, respectively, and listened to the briefings by the heads of the Ukrainian Ministry of Infrastructure, the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of National Defense. During my visit to Poland, France, Germany and EU headquarters, I held talks with Polish Deputy Secretary of State Gerville, French Foreign Ministry Director-General for Political and Security Affairs Mondoloni, German Foreign Ministry Secretary Michaelis, European Council President Michel’s Office Director Bernard and EU External Action Agency Deputy Secretary-General Mora. Russia is the last stop. During my visit to Russia, I held separate meetings with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, Deputy Foreign Ministers Rudenco and Luzin. In the communication with all parties, I elaborated on China’s position and proposition in detail, listened carefully to the opinions of all parties, and had in-depth and frank exchanges with all parties. The visit achieved the expected purpose. The Chinese delegation received a warm and friendly reception at every stop, and I once again thank the parties concerned.

  This is the first time that China has specially sent a delegation to relevant countries to carry out diplomatic work on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis. During this visit, through in-depth communication with all parties, I have the following outstanding feelings.

  First, all parties have made positive comments on China’s efforts and all hope to resolve the crisis peacefully.Regardless of Ukraine, Russia, European countries and the European Union, all parties recognize China’s efforts to promote peace and support a political solution to the Ukrainian crisis. They all hope that China will play an active role and are willing to communicate with China in depth. Uzbekistan thanks China for playing an active role in promoting peace and talks, appreciates China’s adherence to respecting sovereign territorial integrity and abiding by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and emphasizes that many contents in China’s position paper on political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis are in line with President Ze Lenski’s 10-point peace plan, expecting China to continue to exert constructive influence. The Russian side appreciates China’s sincere desire and practical efforts to promote a peaceful settlement of the Ukrainian crisis and expresses that it will continue to adhere to the direction of political settlement. Poland, France, Germany and the European Union all expect China to continue to exert positive influence on the Ukrainian issue, promote the peaceful settlement of the crisis, resolve differences through dialogue and achieve lasting and just peace in Europe. These statements once again show that China’s position on the Ukrainian crisis is objective, fair and impartial, and has also been highly praised by the international community.

  Second, the risk of war escalation remains high.At present, the war is still escalating. During my three days in Ukraine, Kiev sounded the air defense alarm every day, and there were two large-scale air strikes. The battlefield is very deadlocked and full of uncertainty, and the situation is worrying. Historically, wars and conflicts ended in peace. But the spread of war will only bring more disasters and suffering. As long as there is a glimmer of hope for peace, we should make active efforts instead of letting the development of conflicts drag on, let alone adding fuel to the fire, which will lead to local conflicts turning into large-scale wars. At present, the parties may still face many difficulties when they sit down to negotiate and negotiate results, but it is important that someone come forward to promote the consensus of all parties, form the greatest common denominator, and gradually accumulate and create conditions for the final settlement of the crisis. As long as it is conducive to easing the situation and promoting negotiations, China is willing to do it.

  Third, all parties are highly concerned about the risk of crisis spillover, especially nuclear safety, humanitarian issues, food security and other issues.

  All parties are highly concerned about the safety of nuclear facilities in Uzbekistan. Ukrainian officials have repeatedly expressed to me their concerns about the safety of the Zaporoge nuclear power plant, and Polish officials are also worried about this. Once a nuclear disaster occurs, no one can be immune to it. All parties should take responsibility for ensuring the safety of nuclear facilities and take practical actions to ensure that the situation cools down and eases. This is the fundamental way to solve the nuclear safety problem.

  Many countries are concerned about the humanitarian problems caused by the crisis. China attaches great importance to this, and has always played a constructive role in easing the humanitarian situation in Ukraine in its own way, supporting all initiatives and measures that are conducive to alleviating the humanitarian crisis. We put forward China’s six-point proposal on the humanitarian situation in Uzbekistan, and provided many batches of humanitarian aid to Uzbekistan. At the same time, we believe that it is the greatest humanitarianism to stop pouring oil on the fire and promote the situation to cool down as soon as possible and reduce casualties.

  During the visit, all parties also expressed concern about the impact of the Ukrainian crisis on the world grain market, which is related to the survival and well-being of people all over the world. Russia and Ukraine are both important grain producers in the world, and the implementation of the Black Sea grain transportation agreement is of great significance to ensuring global food security. China maintains that the agreement should continue to be implemented in a balanced, comprehensive and effective manner. China has put forward an international food security cooperation initiative, and is willing to strengthen communication and cooperation with all parties in this regard, promote the formation of more international consensus, and make positive contributions to ensuring world food security.

  The Ukrainian crisis has complicated historical latitude and longitude and realistic reasons, and its essence is the explosion of contradictions in European security governance. China is neither a crisis maker nor a participant in the conflict, but an advocate of peace and a promoter of peace talks. China has always held an objective and fair position on the Ukrainian issue and has never stopped its efforts to persuade peace and promote talks. Chairman of the Supreme Leader clearly put forward the "Four Should’s" proposition, which is China’s fundamental follow-up on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis. On February 24th this year, on the occasion of the first anniversary of the outbreak of the conflict, China issued the document "China’s Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukrainian Crisis", hoping to strengthen dialogue and exchanges with all parties on the basis of this document and continue to expand the common denominator of the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis.

  China has always played a constructive role in the peaceful resolution of the crisis based on the above principles and called for a ceasefire. Since the outbreak of the war, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader has held meetings or phone calls with leaders of various countries, including Russia and Ukraine, and has done extensive work in all aspects. Since the beginning of this year, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader has visited Russia, received French President Macron and Brazilian President Lula in China, and telephoned President Zelensky. Political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis is one of the important contents. China has also provided Ukraine with a large amount of humanitarian assistance such as food and medicine. China’s efforts are obvious to all.

  China’s position on promoting peace and talks and easing the situation is consistent. We will continue to implement the positions and propositions of the Supreme Leader’s Chairman, such as "Four Answers", "Four Commonness" and "Three Thoughts", strengthen dialogue and exchanges with all parties, constantly build consensus and accumulate mutual trust, promote the formation of a greater common denominator, and make China contributions to the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis.

  Q: During your visit, The Wall Street Journal reported that, according to informed western officials, China proposed an agreement that would allow Russia to own parts of Ukraine. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kuleba later said that according to his contacts with all parties, no country has expressed the position mentioned in your above report. How do you comment on this?

  AARON Li: A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China has clarified the report. I don’t know who the so-called "informed western officials" in The Wall Street Journal refer to, but the relevant reports are totally untrue. China adheres to an objective and fair position, actively persuades peace and promotes talks, and always stands on the side of peace, dialogue and justice. We are doing the right thing and doing it to the end. Whether in the process of communication with Uzbekistan, Russia or Europe, our position is consistent and clear. We also released the news in time. China’s position has been widely understood and supported by the international community including Russia and Ukraine.

  During my visit to Ukraine, I had a friendly and frank communication with Foreign Minister Kuleba himself. Uzbekistan thanked China for playing an active role in persuading and stopping the war, and appreciated China’s call for respect for sovereign territorial integrity and compliance with the purposes and principles of the UN Charter. Foreign Minister Culeba made a personal clarification, which shows that the false report in The Wall Street Journal is not only completely untrue, but also unpopular, and it is obviously provoking Sino-Ukrainian relations.

  I want to emphasize that China is not a party to the Ukrainian issue and will not do anything to add fuel to the fire. The Ukrainian issue is not a problem between China, Ukraine, China, Russia or China and Europe. China is willing to continue to strengthen communication and dialogue with all parties and play a constructive role in persuading and promoting talks.

  Q: After this visit, what is your judgment on the prospect of a political solution to the Ukrainian crisis?

  AARON Li: The Ukrainian crisis can only be resolved through dialogue and negotiation. During this visit, I feel that all parties support a political solution to the Ukrainian crisis. There may still be many difficulties for the parties to sit down and negotiate, but the parties are not completely without consensus. The Russian side said that it never opposes peace talks and has always supported solving problems through political channels; Uzbekistan also expressed its cherish and longing for peace, and the two sides have no door to peace talks.

  If we really want to stop the war, save lives and achieve peace, we should stop sending weapons to the battlefield, otherwise it will only push up the risk of escalating tensions. China has always believed that no matter how great the difficulties and differences are, we should stick to the general direction of peace talks until a ceasefire and peace are reached.

  I have noticed that South Africa and other African countries, Brazil and other parties have put forward initiatives to peacefully resolve the Ukrainian crisis, and China welcomes these initiatives. At present, it is important to gather the consensus of all parties, promote the formation of the greatest common denominator, and gradually accumulate and create conditions for the final settlement of the crisis. As long as it is conducive to easing the situation and promoting negotiations, China is willing to continue to do so.

  Q: As a senior diplomat, you have visited Europe and Eurasia many times. Your visit bears a great mission. As far as personal feelings are concerned, what is the difference compared with previous visits?

  AARON Li: I have worked in Russia for many years, and I have visited Ukraine and many European countries many times. This visit is regarded as revisiting my old place for me. But compared with the past, this visit is really different. The most intuitive feeling is the inconvenient transportation. As there is no flight to Ukraine, the first stop of our trip is to Kiev via Poland, and the train journey from Kiev to Warsaw is as long as 18 hours. Due to the suspension of flights between Europe and Russia, the direct flight from Brussels to Moscow originally took only three hours, but now it takes a whole night to get there by bypassing Istanbul. I think this is the most intuitive embodiment of the impact of the Ukrainian crisis on the economic and social life of all countries.

  This is only one aspect of transportation. Ukraine, Russia and European countries used to have very close economic, cultural and social exchanges, but now many of them have been artificially cut off. It is not other countries on the other side of the ocean that have suffered the most, but Ukraine, Russia and European countries. The longer the crisis drags on, Ukraine, Russia and Europe will bear greater sacrifices and pay greater prices. Getting out of the crisis as soon as possible is beneficial to all parties, which is also the starting point for us to persuade and promote talks.

Edible oil market: soybean oil is dominant, and consumption is gradually upgrading.

CITICS

Edible oil can be divided into vegetable oil and animal oil according to the category. Edible vegetable oil is the main domestic consumption, and the consumption of animal oil is decreasing year by year. According to the statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics, the proportion of edible vegetable oil in the per capita edible oil consumption of rural households in China has increased from 56% in 1980 to 90% in 2018. Edible vegetable oil is mainly produced from upstream soybeans, rapeseed,

Planting oil seeds such as peanuts and sunflower seeds, squeezing, refining and packaging to obtain packaged edible oil products; In addition, the by-product oil meal can be used as an important feed raw material, while the primary processed products such as crude oil can be used to manufacture daily chemical products, high-quality basic chemicals, nutritional products, etc., which are widely used in food, chemical industry, medicine and other industries.

20201003/6e9c33baf01d5b6399b69a8e64f8482c.png

In recent years, the consumption of edible vegetable oil has increased steadily.

With the increase of per capita edible oil consumption and the substitution of edible vegetable oil for edible animal oil, the consumption of edible vegetable oil in China has continued to increase, and the growth rate of industry consumption has gradually slowed down after 2005, stabilizing at single-digit growth.

According to the statistics of National Cereals and Oils Information Center, in 2017/18 (from October 2017 to September 2018, the same below), the consumption of edible vegetable oil in China reached 34.4 million tons, and the CAGR reached 4.5% in the past five years. Among them, the production of edible vegetable oil reached 29.63 million tons, and the CAGR reached 4.5% in the past five years. Some edible vegetable oils were supplemented by imports.

Soybean oil-rapeseed oil is dominant, and oilseed soybeans are mainly imported.

In terms of scaleAccording to USDA data, the consumption of soybean oil and rapeseed oil in China in 2018/19 reached 15.89 million tons and 8.39 million tons respectively. The consumption of peanut oil, sunflower oil and corn oil ranks second.

Packaging edible oil: soybean oil dominates the market, and consumption is gradually escalating.

According to the packaging methods, edible vegetable oil can be divided into bulk oil, medium packaging edible oil and small packaging edible oil.

In recent years, with the continuous promulgation of national laws and regulations on restricting the sale of bulk oil, the improvement of residents’ living standards and consumers’ increasing awareness of food safety, the consumption of bulk oil has gradually decreased, and the consumption of small and medium-sized packaged edible oil has gradually increased, occupying the main position in the edible oil market.

According to Euromonitor statistics, the consumption of packaged edible oil in China reached 14.67 million tons in 2019 (excluding industry), and the CAGR was 4.8% in 2014-2019. It is expected that the industry will continue to grow steadily in the future, and the expected sales volume CAGR in 2019-2024 is 3.7%.

Looking at retail channels alone, the sales volume, sales volume and retail price of packaged edible oil in 2019 were 103.1 billion yuan, 8.39 million tons and 12,292 yuan/ton respectively, corresponding to CAGR of 2.2%, 3.8% and -1.5% in 2014-2019 respectively.

20201003/4579623eb1ac1f3fd4991161e342fc01.png

Soybean oil dominated, and the proportion of high-priced edible oil increased.

In terms of categories, soybean oil is still dominant in packaged edible oil.

According to Euromonitor statistics, in 2019, China’s soybean oil sales accounted for 44%, and rapeseed oil, peanut oil and sunflower oil accounted for 10%, 9% and 7% respectively.

From the retail price, olive oil is much higher than other categories, reaching 97,000 yuan/ton in 2019; Peanut oil and sunflower oil are relatively higher than the average level, with 14,300 yuan and 13,600 yuan/ton respectively in 2019; Soybean oil and rapeseed oil are the most common edible oils, and the price per ton is relatively low. In 2019, they were 11,200 yuan and 10,100 yuan/ton respectively.

With the improvement of people’s consumption level, the sales growth rate of relatively high-priced edible oil is ahead. From 2014 to 2019, the sales of olive oil, peanut oil and sunflower oil reached 9.9%, 5.9% and 8.3% respectively, which was higher than the industry average.

20201003/5b983031c2f469d0d64b25998b3b6f97.png

Modern channels are dominant, especially high-priced oil.

Small-package edible vegetable oil has both the attributes of hoarding goods and giving gifts, so modern channels such as supermarkets and supermarkets are the main sales channels.

According to Nielsen statistics (quoted from the company’s prospectus), in 2019, the sales volume of small package edible vegetable oil in supermarkets and supermarkets accounted for 32.4% and 30.9% respectively.

Especially for sunflower seed oil, rice oil, peanut oil, olive oil, etc., the total proportion of hypermarkets and supermarkets is over 70%.

Judging from the trend in the past three years, the proportion of overall hypermarkets has declined, the proportion of supermarkets has increased, and other channels have changed relatively little.

20201003/760a2f170ca8f0b56ca0430121bc51bd.png

In the future, the industry will grow steadily and the upgrading trend will continue.

In the future, the domestic packaged edible oil industry is expected to maintain a steady growth trend. According to Euromonitor’s forecast, the domestic packaged edible oil sales CAGR will reach 3.7% from 2019 to 2024.

With the increase of people’s income level and the demand for health and quality, the demand for high-end edible oils (such as sunflower oil and olive oil) with more balanced and rich nutrients will continue to increase in the future.

According to Euromonitor’s forecast, from 2019 to 2024, the traditional sales of soybean oil and rapeseed oil will be only 1.5% and 2.7%, while the consumption of sunflower oil and olive oil will reach 4.1% and 5.4% respectively, and the proportion of high-end edible oil sales is expected to continue to increase.

China will promote rural passenger vehicles to transport mail express.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Transport and other nine departments jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Integration of Rural Passenger Transport and Postal Service", proposing that in order to further promote the integration of rural passenger transport, freight logistics and postal express delivery, and better meet the needs of rural people’s travel, freight logistics and delivery services, China will promote rural passenger vehicles to transport mail express.

Popularizing rural passenger transport vehicles to transport mail express can give full play to the advantages of wide coverage and deep access of rural passenger transport network, guide urban and rural passenger transport enterprises and public transport enterprises to rely on the layout of urban and rural passenger transport lines, optimize vehicle scheduling, set up reasonable stops, actively open rural passenger and freight mail cooperation lines from county to towns and villages, towns and villages to established villages, and use vehicle luggage compartments and internal goods storage areas to transport mail express, so as to ensure the rapid delivery of mail express on the premise of ensuring safety and ensuring rural people’s ride demand.

The opinion puts forward that a "one-point multi-function" rural passenger and postal integration development site will be built. Support county-level passenger stations to expand comprehensive service functions such as freight logistics, postal express, e-commerce, tourism, and promote unified warehousing, unified sorting, and unified distribution on the basis of retaining basic passenger service functions.

According to the opinion, the next step will be to promote safe and reliable rural passenger and postal integration development equipment. Encourage rural passenger transport operators to give priority to rural road buses equipped with lower or rear luggage compartments, and use luggage compartments to transport items such as express mail in accordance with relevant regulations.

According to the opinion, by 2027, the county-level administrative regions with conditions in China will achieve full coverage of the development of rural passenger and cargo mail integration. The number of three-level passenger and cargo mail stations in counties and villages nationwide will reach more than 100,000, and the number of rural passenger and cargo mail cooperation lines will reach more than 20,000. A new rural transportation service model of "one point with multiple functions, one network with multiple functions, intensive functions, convenience and high efficiency" will be basically established, and the national rural transportation service level and sustainable development capacity will be significantly improved.

What are the upgrades for the 2025 Lynk & Co 08 EM-P?

1164.jpg

1165.jpg

The new Lynk & Co 08 EM-P has not changed much in appearance, and still adopts the design language. The front face part uses a closed air intake grille, and the lower bumper area retains the air intake; the tail design uses the popular cross-type tail light group. The light cavity uses a dot matrix light source. At the same time, the rear door of the vehicle also has a relatively good three-dimensional sense, creating a sporty look as a whole. In addition, the new car also adds a morning blue paint color on the basis of the original appearance color scheme.

1166.jpg

On the side of the car, the new Lynk & Co 08 EM-P continues to provide hidden door handles, frameless doors, low wind resistance rims and bezel-less exterior mirrors.

Sales king re-evolution, test drive Wuling Hongguang S1 luxury model

[Autohome Original Test Drive] Wuling Hongguang series models, as the best-selling models on the planet, have always been concerned by a large number of users. SAIC-GM-Wuling Motors launched an upgraded version of Hongguang S in August this year – Hongguang S1, which is a model positioned between Hongguang S and Baojun 730. Compared with Hongguang S, it has a lot of improvement in appearance, interior and driving quality. Overall, it has a good performance. For its appearance and interior, friends who pay attention to this car have already gained a considerable understanding of it (click here to see my colleague Zhou Churan’s real picture of Hongguang S1). I believe that many friends who have not yet tested it must be curious about the performance of this car’s driving quality. So today, let’s take a look at how this car works.

As mentioned earlier, the Hongguang S1 is upgraded from the Hongguang S, which has improved the appearance, interior and power smoothness. Overall, the appearance of the Hongguang S1 is more fashionable, so it can be applied to more occasions, making it not only a commercial model that can only "work and pull goods", but also a step towards a more versatile MPV model.

Compared with the Hongguang S, the front face design of the Hongguang S1 is obviously more dynamic and fashionable. In the front face design, the Hongguang S1 uses the same color as the body to extend into the shield-shaped forward air barrier, while the lower air intake barrier has also been redesigned to look flatter. With dynamic fog lamp components, the Hongguang S1 looks more dynamic than the Hongguang S.

The Hongguang S1 series is equipped with lenticular low beams and folding remote control keys as standard, and the configuration is more high-grade, but the lowest model is still equipped with manually adjusted rearview mirrors. However, for models of the Hongguang S1 class, such a configuration is already quite kind. In terms of tires, the Hongguang S1 luxury model uses Kumho’s 195/60 R15 tires, and the low-end model uses the lower-priced Linglong tires, but the Hongguang S1 series comes standard with 15-inch 16-spoke aluminum alloy wheels.

In terms of body size, the Hongguang S1 has some changes on the basis of the Hongguang S. Its body height is lower, while the width is increased by 41mm, which makes the lateral visual effect of the body better. The wheelbase is the same as the Hongguang S, 2720mm, which is 30mm smaller than the Baojun 730 and maintains a certain difference from the Baojun 730.

The lower edge of the rear window of the Hongguang S1 luxury model has added chrome decorative strips. It is precisely because of this design that the rear window of the luxury model cannot be opened sideways, which is different from the standard model and comfort. However, in actual driving, although the rear window cannot be opened, the comfort of the third row passengers is not greatly affected.

The rear details of the Hongguang S1 have been redesigned, especially the taillight assembly, with a horizontal split taillight for better visual effect. The luxury rear also has 4 reversing radar and reversing imaging system, which is quite abundant in this class of models.

● Interior: fine design, good sense of grade

The interior design of the Hongguang S1 highlights the skills of Wuling designers, and there is an improvement on the basis of the Hongguang S. It uses an upper and lower two-color design, and the model we tested uses an upper brown and lower beige interior color scheme. Although the center console and door panels are made of the most basic hard plastic, the overall look is more refined and the sense of grade has also been improved.

The steering wheel of the Hongguang S1 adopts a three-spoke design and uses a small number of chrome-plated decorative parts as embellishments, which looks relatively simple. It is also equipped with electronic steering power, which is more careful in configuration. And it also has a monochrome LCD screen in the center of the dashboard, which looks very high-grade.

The luxury central control entertainment system also supports the mobile phone screen mapping function, allowing Android or Apple phones to project the screen onto the central control screen in the car through the HDMI interface, making it more convenient to operate and enhancing the convenience and comfort of using the car.

Dynamic test drive: the improvement of driving quality is more obvious

The 1.5L P-TEC DVVT engine on the Hongguang S1 has a maximum horsepower of 112 horsepower and a maximum torque of 147 Nm

The engine has also been optimized for ride comfort, and a dual-mass flywheel has been replaced inside the engine. The vibration of the engine during operation is smaller than that of Hongguang S, and the overall driving texture has been improved significantly.

In terms of gearboxes, the Hongguang S1 is still equipped with a 5MT manual gearbox, but the gearbox has been redesigned to improve the shifting texture compared to the 5MT manual gearbox used on the Hongguang S, with clear gears and smoother gear shifts.

This car still uses a front-and-rear-drive design. The gearbox switches smoothly after being readjusted, the clutch pedal travel is very short, and the engine is biased towards low-speed power output adjustment, so the power output is quite smooth at starting and low-speed driving, with good performance.

Due to the use of a dual-mass flywheel in the engine, the engine has better smoothness at medium and low speeds, and has improved in terms of operation refinement compared to the engine used on the Hongguang S model. When driving at medium and low speeds, the engine vibration phenomenon on the previous Hongguang S was significantly reduced.

For the Hongguang S1, the speed of 80km/h can be said to be the speed commonly used in medium and high-speed driving. When cruising at 5th gear and 80km/h, the engine speed is maintained at around 2500rpm, and the engine noise at this time is clear, but still within an acceptable range.

And when it comes to noise, the noise control of the Hongguang S1 has been significantly improved compared to the Hongguang S, which can also be seen from the engineers’ efforts on the NVH aspect of this car. However, we can still clearly hear the obvious noise from the engine, rear axle and tires when driving at medium and high speeds. But for this price and this class of models, even its sibling Hongguang S, its noise control performance is quite good.

In terms of chassis suspension, the Hongguang S1 uses a front McPherson independent suspension/rear coil spring semi-independent suspension, which has some differences from the leaf spring rear suspension used on the Hongguang S. However, in order to be able to accommodate the need to load more goods and take into account the production cost, its suspension is set to be relatively hard, and the fine vibration of the road surface will be clearly transmitted into the car. If you encounter large potholes or ups and downs, the beating of the vehicle is also more obvious. If it is an MPV, then the chassis is not the strength of the Hongguang S1, but for its price and main purpose, it has performed quite well.
