“We prefer to work with partners”, said Batelco official Peter Kaliaropoulos, the Manama-based Al Wagt daily reports.
He added that Djezzy’s selling price is higher than the market price and requires capital that isn’t currently available to Batelco.

Batelco has operations in Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Yemen, Jordan and India.
