Boeing Seals $16.6 Billion Deal to Sell Jets to Iran Plane maker’s contract comes as incoming Trump administration appears hostile to closer ties with Iran By ROBERT WALL and ASA FITCH Dec. 11, 2016
Boeing Co. completed a deal to sell 80 jetliners to Iran, the first major agreement between a U.S. company and the Islamic Republic since the election of Donald Trump, a critic of closer links between the countries.
The first Boeing 777-300ER long-haul planes would be delivered to Iran Air in 2018 under the deal announced Sunday that carries a list price of $16.6 billion before discounts,
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around. That what it’s all about.
Paid for by the Øbama regime with American tax dollars.
gotten through millions in bribes to the Clintons.
Each plane will be a delivery system.
Is GE making a deal to supply the nukes also??
I hope Trump unseals the deal.
Why not? I mean Iran is just a nation trying to make it’s way in this difficult world. Smirk...
Tell me again, who tried to influence the election?...
This is just retaliation for the Boeing comments by Trump. Guess what? Trump will veto the deal.
Are there 80 more towers out there???
I wonder how USofA based companies can say they are for USofA if they sell military or weapon related items to foreign countries who tend to want to do USofA harm? Cn they be held accountable for deaths related from their sales?
Iran is brazenly attempting to make a fool of our new president. They are buying jobs for Americans at Boeing, and daring this president to veto those jobs.
The Iranians are our enemy, and they are to be rebuffed at every step of the way no matter the circumstances.
With the economy picking up under President Trump the necessity to succumb to Iran’s manipulations to secure our future is not.
We should encourage President Trump to tell the Iranians to shove it where the light doesn’t shine.
Build the planes, hold then in “safe keeping” for the rag heads.
Boeing will make no such deal, this is silly.
Real “Fake News.”
Trump is building a cabinet to take a big stick to Iran. I predict we do a lightning strike attack on them within 2 yrs of Trump taking office.
Iran is sooooo overdue for the a$$ kicking of their lives. Reduce their military capacity to camels and swords. Let Russia have in exchange what they want in exchange.
Iran has got to pay the price for their BS since 1979.
It will never happen!
Who gets and how much is kicked back to the Obama Administration?
Does Trump have the authority to do so?
Exports of any kind can be subject to administrative actions for a variety of reasons, including aiding an acknowledged enemy. The president, indirectly, does seem to have such authority.
