...Participants said talks were tense and frustrating. While Germany was represented by Merkel and two key ministers, Washington sent a midlevel Treasury official who was unable to make any definitive decisions. Several times during the meeting, the U.S. negotiator broke off talks to consult with his superiors by telephone back in Washington.

...settle on a hasty treatise. “Lysistrata” managed to stay loyal to the classical Grecian comedy’s plot while integrating modern allusions. The sequin-clad women use a metaphor for spinning wool to illustrate the necessity of negotiations and peacekeeping and also consult the Oracle of Delphi.
