BERLIN-A German news agency reported that Deutsche Telekom AG does not plan to sell its T-Mobile USA Inc. division and will instead look for other alternatives in reducing its more than $60 billion debt load.
DT interim chief executive Helmut Sihler reportedly told the VWD news agency that the company was still open to other options for its U.S. wireless business. Analysts note those options could include a partnership with either U.S.-based operators Cingular Wireless L.L.C. or AT&T Wireless Services Inc.
The German telecommunications giant is expected to make an official announcement about T-Mobile USA’s future Nov. 14.
