Russia's Minfin Signals Aeroflot SPO Possible This Year or Next

Russian Deputy Finance Minister Alexey Moiseev stated that a secondary public offering (SPO) of state-owned Aeroflot shares could occur either by end-2026 or in 2027, leaving timing open. This signals potential privatization steps amid fiscal pressures, but no concrete decision or size has been disclosed. The move could affect Aeroflot's valuation and Russian equity market sentiment.
