key mates, page-28

Well, I hope with Lucivs that cool heads will ultimately prevail here.

I believe there is a very strong practical and moral case for ensuring the damage done by ANZ-Opes to all our key Russian personnel, is remedied quickly and equitably.

It'd be just plain foolish not to retain all our smart people with their established networks and clever know-how if some fair means to do so has already been nutted out.

At least we should give it a proper hearing.

Business is always throwing up obstacles, and the ANZ-Opes fiasco certainly came out of the blue. But every problem is capable of a solution...and the first major step – of removing the Opes overhang – has been well-handled, in my view, under the circumstances.

This is the next step.


This behemoth will be leaving the station soon enough.
