                                           CONCLUSION

             Applicant believes that there is significant potential for continued growth in the

international voice market and that this market expansion will be accelerated byadditional

competition by new entrants. This position is consistent with the Commission‘s findings that

increased competition in international markets benefits the public interest. Applicant is legally,

financially and technically qualified to provide the service for which it requests global resale

authority. For the reasons stated above, Applicant submits that the public interest, convenience

and necessity would be furthered by granting Applicant‘s § 214 Application. The request for

global resale authorization should, therefore, be issued to Applicant for the purpose of providing

resold switchless voice communications fromthe United States to international points.
