Hi,  
I am trying to implement IF - ELSE in mustache on an existing condition for ECS service which is working,

desired count = “${var.dr\_region == var.region ? 0 : {{initial\_capacity}}}”

what I am looking for is, in the very same condition what I am trying to implement is if dr region is not equal to region I want to give another count. some thing like this which doesnt work

desired count = “${var.dr\_region == var.region ? 0 : {{initial\_capacity}} && var.dr\_region != var.region ? 0 : {{maximum\_capacity}}}”

can someone help me on how to solve this?  
Thanks in advance
