The Czech weekly newsmagazine Euro reports today that Telenor of Norway has shown an interest in buying the government’s stake in Ceske radiokomunikace. The government will nonetheless continue its negotiations with TeleDanmark toward an improved bid from that company. The Czech deputy transport and communications minister ruled out separate negotiations with Telenor and said that Telenor could join the TeleDanmark group of bidders. Slightly positive news, but unlikely to have much impact on the stock. The finance minister has until May 15 to submit an improved TeleDanmark offer to the Cabinet.
