Boeing, Airbus licenses to sell jets to Iran to be revoked: US Treasury
[PRESSTV] The US Treasury says licenses held by aerospace giants Boeing and Airbus to sell passenger jets to Iran will be revoked after Washington announced its withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal.

"The Boeing and (Airbus) licenses will be revoked," Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Tuesday.

"Under the original deal there were waivers for commercial aircraft, parts and services and the existing licenses will be revoked," he added.

The remarks came after US President Donald Trump

on Tuesday announced that he was quitting the Iran nuclear agreement, officially called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Trump also said that he would reinstate US nuclear sanctions on Iran and impose "the highest level" of economic bans on the Islamic Theocratic Republic.

Trump's decision came despite massive efforts by Washington's European allies to convince the US president to stay in the JCPOA.

He had threatened US exit from the multilateral nuclear accord unless the European parties fixed what he has claimed "flaws" in the agreement.

In December 2016, La Belle France-based Airbus Group signed a deal to sell Iran 100 jetliners worth about $19 billion at list prices. It has delivered three planes so far.

-based Boeing Co. announced a contract with Iran for 80 aircraft valued at $16.6 billion. It further announced another agreement in April 2017 to sell Iran 30 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft for $3 billion, with purchase rights for another 30 planes.

#1 ...Well, that answers THAT question.

On the other hand, no metal has been cut, and the Iranians were dropping hints that they wanted to 'renegotiate' the cost anyways.
