To help us refocus on small packages, while still being able to offer freight solutions to important customers in Europe, we formed an alliance with Danzas, a freight-forwarding company based in Switzerland. Through Danzas, we can move large freight for our customers while picking up new revenue streams in the process. Danzas will collect, transport and deliver palletized shipments and freight that exceed our weight and size restrictions. By the same token, UPS makes available to Danzas our extensive European and worldwide express-document and package delivery network on behalf of its own customers. I'd like to finish by returning to one of the first things I said because it's pivotal to the future of many companies, including our own.
Free trade is the best trade.
And, while many open trade agreements have been forged around the world in the past decade, there is no guarantee those doors will always remain open. Local economies in the industrialized nations, including the U.S., have endured job losses and downturns that can produce political pressure to slam the doors shut again. It's understandable, but shortsighted. We're in a period of adjustment, and it's painful for some. Thank you very much.
