Worldlink proposes by this application to provide international switched and private line services from the United States to international points through resale of other carriers‘ services. The Commission has determined that, as a matter of policy, introduction of additional competition in the provision of international services creates incentives for carriers to offer new and innovative services and to reduce prices, which inures to the
