Mr. MINTZER: My suggestion is that we give up our desire to picka single winner in the battery field and begin to look at what the range of possibilities are.
Increasingly, U.S. policymakers are looking at a more diverse diplomacy that no longer seeks to picka single winner (and acknowledges silently that the U.S. may no longer be powerful enough to do so), but that attempts to encourage multiple players to prevent the Game being lost.
