This was reflected in the statement by TMK.
The document was signed following a meeting at TMK’s headquarters, where the parties discussed finalizing the financing agreement and accelerating the process of reaching a definitive arrangement.
In addition, the talks covered TMK’s plans to access international capital markets, diversify its funding sources and expand its investment portfolio. Societe Generale expressed its readiness to provide practical support in these areas.
