Boeing signs deal to sell aircraft to Iran
Boeing inked a deal to sell jetliners to the largest airline in Iran, potentially becoming the first big American company to take advantage of the lifting of many economic sanctions with the Islamic Republic following last year's landmark nuclear accord.
The Chicago-based aircraft manufacturer said Tuesday that it signed an agreement with Iran Air “expressing the airline’s intent” to buy its aircraft. But the agreement could face hurdles, including opposition in Congress.
The sale could be worth up to $25 billion to Boeing, Abbas Akhoundi, Iran's roads and urban development minister, told Iran's Press TV. Terms of the deal were not being disclosed. If they call for the planes being sold at full price, the total represents more than a quarter of the annual revenue for a company that reached an all-time-high revenue mark in 2015.
The agreement calls for Iran Air to buy a mix of models of Boeing aircraft that is expected to include the 737, the best-selling commercial aircraft of all time, and others, according to the Iranian Students’ News Agency. Boeing declined to comment on the size of the deal, though Iran Civil Aviation Organization head Ali Abedzadeh told the Iranian news agency Tasnim that the airline would purchase 100 aircraft from Boeing.
The agreement would come several months after European consortium aircraft manufacturer Airbus signed a deal to sell 73 wide-body planes and 45 single-aisle planes to Iran for commercial use in a deal that media reports said is worth $27 billion. To be sure, however, Boeing's sale is not a done deal yet. The company must win approval from the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control, which enforces sanctions and monitors economic transactions between U.S. companies and foreign countries engaged in illicit activities.
“Boeing will continue to follow the lead of the U.S. government with regards to working with Iran’s airlines, and any and all contracts with Iran’s airlines will be contingent upon U.S. government approval,” Boeing said in a statement. Another potential obstacle is opposition from members of Congress who opposed the Iran nuclear accord, saying that Iran had not earned the right to escape sanctions.
Rep. Peter Roskam, R-Ill., said he and other members of Congress from Chicago and Washington state, where Boeing has large manufacturing operations, oppose the transaction and will work to block it.
"If this moves forward, Boeing and terror will be intertwined," Roskam said. "Congress will not be sitting by idly without something to say about it."
The U.S. severed diplomatic ties with Iran in 1980 following a revolution that toppled the country's ruler and sparked a takeover of the U.S. Embassy with 52 Americans taken hostage. Since then, the two countries have been engaged in a prolonged political standoff over Iran's nuclear ambitions, anti-Israel positions and American sanctions, among other things. President Obama signed an executive order lifting most sanctions in January.
Despite that progress, Iran is still listed by the State Department as a state sponsor of terrorism for its support of the Lebanese terror groups Hezbollah and the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Boeing, Airbus licences to sell jets to Iran to be revoked: U.S. treasury secretary
Licences for Boeing Co. and Airbus to sell passenger jets to Iran will be revoked, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said on Tuesday after President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement.
Trump said he would reimpose U.S. economic sanctions on Iran, which had been lifted under the agreement he has harshly criticized.
The pact, worked out by the United States, five other world powers and Iran, lifted sanctions in exchange for Tehran limiting its nuclear program. It was designed to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear bomb.
IranAir had ordered 200 passenger aircraft: 100 from Airbus SE, 80 from Boeing and 20 from Franco-Italian turboprop maker ATR. All the deals are dependent on U.S. licenses because of the heavy use of American parts in commercial planes.
Boeing agreed in December 2016 to sell 80 aircraft, worth $17 billion US at list prices, to IranAir under an agreement between Tehran and major world powers to reopen trade in exchange for curbs on Iran's nuclear activities.
The U.S. Treasury Department, which controls licensing of exports, said the United States will no longer allow the export of commercial passenger aircraft, parts and services to Iran after a 90-day period.
European planemaker Airbus said on Tuesday before the Mnuchin news conference that it would study Trump's decision, adding that it would take some time.
