Deutsche Post not interested in Austrian rival

BONN, Germany - Deutsche Post, the semi-privatised German postal authority, will not take part in a privatisation of the Austrial postal services, a spokesman for the German company said Monday.
"If they say they will privatise in the future, and ask us if we are interested, we'll say that we won't participate," Deutsche Post spokesman Martin Dopychai said.
"We've said before that if there were a privatisation there, we would look at it. But now ... we are no longer entering Austria and we will concentrate on other markets," Dopychai said.
