Question
In a follow-up, Nick Dempsey asked if the FCC's proposed rulemaking on spectrum sharing and power limits for LEO satellites could affect SES's business.

CEO Adel Al-Saleh responded that SES is closely involved in these regulatory discussions from its unique position as both a GEO and MEO operator.
