Boeing says it will not deliver any aircraft to Iran

NEW YORK

Boeing will not deliver aircraft to Iran in light of US sanctions, effectively aborting a pair of large contracts with Iranian carriers, a Boeing spokesman said on Wednesday.

Boeing no longer has a licence to sell to Iran following a move by President Donald Trump to pull out of the 2015 Iran nuclear accord, the Boeing spokesman said. Boeing had previously said it would respect US policy on Iran but had not commented directly on deliveries.
