Federal Communications Commission	FCC 21-121
CONCURRING STATEMENT OF
COMMISSIONER BRENDAN CARR
Re: 	Application of Verizon Communications Inc. and América Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V. for Consent to Transfer Control of International Section 214 Authorization, Memorandum Opinion and Order, GN Docket No. 21-112 
Approving this transaction promotes the public interest, and therefore I support the decision.  So I want to commend Chairwoman Rosenworcel and her team for their work on this proceeding.  As I have noted previously, I have concerns with the standards and frameworks that the agency applies in transaction reviews. See Applications of T-Mobile US, Inc., and Sprint Corporation For Consent To Transfer Control of Licenses and Authorizations, Memorandum Opinion and Order, Declaratory Ruling, and Order of Proposed Modification, 34 FCC Rcd 10578 (2019) (Statement of Commissioner Brendan Carr); Remarks of Commissioner Brendan Carr at the Phoenix Center’s 19th Annual U.S. Telecoms Symposium, Keeping Pace With Dynamic Industries (Dec. 3, 2019), https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-361147A1.pdf.
  Rather than relitigating those concerns here, I am voting to concur in the outcome of today’s decision.
