Opposition reacts to Air Malta talks collapse: 'We told you so'
The Opposition spokesman on Air Malta, Claudio Grech, said Monday that the collapse of Air Malta’s talks with Alitalia led one to say ‘we told you so’ because everyone had raised eyebrows when the talks were started with an airline which was itself in serious difficulties. Many people breathed a sigh of relief that Air Malta would not bind itself with a partner which would have made it irrelevant. Grech was replying to comments made by Tourism minister Edward Zammit Lewis, who repeated what he told trade unions Friday about the failure of the talks. He said the talks with Alitalia had been stopped in the interests of the Maltese airline, its route network, the tourism industry and the economy in general as well as developments in the aviation sector. <br/>
