Hi Carolin, My colleague, Zsolt was approved, however my application was declined. In Türk Telekom International, over the last 7-8 years I am the dedicated negotiator for interconnections with partners together with Zsolt, our product manager, even if I’m part of the commercial team. May I ask you to reconsider this decision? We’re not trying to play the rules, that’s just how we distribute responsibilities internally.
