Telekom Moves to Annex Internet Wing; Gov't Unhappy

Ljubljana, 12 February - The management board of the Slovenian telco Telekom Slovenije has moved to annex its Internet wing Siol before Slovenia joins the EU. Telekom believes that this would be a logical step, given that other European telcos have incorporated Internet telephony into their operations. However, the government, which owns a majority stake in Telekom, has already said it sees no reason for this step.
