competitive imbalance

[ranell]

It is not likely that the competitive imbalance that now exists between Japan with all major industrial nations will be redressed during the foreseeable future.
A with all major industrial nations will be redressed during
B with all other major industrial nations will be redressed within
C with all other major industrial nations will be redressed during
D and all major industrial nations will be redressed during
E and all other major industrial nations will be redressed within

I reduce it to D and E. so please explain what answer will be correct

SC's are my weak point. But here is my take.

Between X and Y

so left with D and E.

IMO-E
and all other major industrial nations will be redressed within

During in E makes the awkward.(During=> future NO!)

Hope this Helps

D wrong because you are comparing Japan with all major industrial nations (That includes Japan also)..
which is wrong ..
Japan has to be compared with other all other world nations (excluding Japan)
