DANG! I removed the "and" before posting. Don't be too hard on yourself. It is all too normal to make spelling and grammatical omissions. Just ask CX.

There have been rumours before (it's such a simple and natural idea !), what's new is that a credible source, Bloomberg, is saying that Emirates is interested. EK would not say that without a degree of approval from authorities. That is the important point, since the issue is politically loaded.
EDIT : I posted the above before reading the official denial. My take on all this is that EK has been allowed to consider all forms of cooperation (inclusing a merger) and to come up with one or more proposals. At present, authorities have no choice but to deny a merger, since the outcome remains uncertain.
