US allows Boeing, Airbus to sell planes to Iran
Teheran
THE United States on Wednesday removed a final hurdle for Western aircraft manufacturers to sell planes to Iran, a country desperately in need of hundreds of new aircraft.
The Treasury Department granted aviation giants Airbus and Boeing licences to deliver planes to Teheran. The decision is a boon not only for the two companies but also for Iranian politicians who want to expand Iran's engagement with the world now that sanctions linked to Iran's nuclear programme have been lifted.
