why do all Namespace gets appended when extracted through extract Variable policy for a SOAP xml?

Hi All

I am trying to extract a node from a soap XML through extract variable policy.When extracted the last node which has to be extracted gets appended with all the namespaces present in that SOAP Xml

why is it appending all the namespaces?

ExtractVariables configuration

<ExtractVariables name='EV-1'>
  <Source>something_here</Source>
  <XMLPayload stopPayloadProcessing="false"> 
    <Namespaces> 
      <Namespace prefix="soap">http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope</Namespace> 
      <Namespace prefix="c">http://www.docusign.net/API/3.0</Namespace> 
      <Namespace prefix="s">http://webservice.bmc.pharmacy.com</Namespace> 
    </Namespaces> 
    <Variable name="process" type="nodeset"> 
      <XPath>/soap:Envelope/soap:Body/c:Root/c:Name/c:Country/node()</XPath> 
    </Variable> 
  </XMLPayload> 
</ExtractVariables>
