I’m annoyed at Handelsblatt for publishing a peculiar and poorly researched piece about Trenitalia entering the German high speed rail market. And quoting Böttger who’s a pain.
And then German press go on copy-pasting the rubbish, inc Heise 😡 https://www.heise.de/news/Italiens-Staatsbahn-erwaegt-Einstieg-ins-Fernverkehrsgeschaeft-10965971.html
@jon *If* the Handelsblatt had discovered that Trenitalia wants to compete in Germany even though in May they annouced a cooperation with ÖBB and DB, they would have written exaclty that.
Instead, they miss the point because they don’t know what question to ask. Donnarumma keeps talking about competition, Handelsblatt implies FS wants to compete, but Donnarumma is never quoted saying that.
