A Boeing spokesman in Dubai wanted to not comment, but denied also not mentioned by the head of the organization in Tehran Details. He pointed out that the US government would agree to such a contract.

The official Tehran news agency Irna quoted the head of the Civil Aviation Organization, Ali Abedsadeh, with the words, Boeing is currently waiting for the approval of the US Treasury for the deal. A fixed price for the aircraft had not yet been identified. “Both sides – Iran and Boeing – have made a written agreement for the purchase of Boeing aircraft,” explained Abedsadeh

Iran had announced in April that Boeing an offer to sell. had submitted the aircraft model series 737, 787 and 777 aircraft. Iranian airlines currently have around 60 Boeing aircraft in use, most of which date from the time before the Islamic Revolution of 1979th Of the total 250 civil aircraft Iranian airlines are currently 100 for spare parts shortage not operational.

After the historic nuclear deal closed last year, Iran has been with the European manufacturer Airbus to buy 118 aircraft sealed. But this deal includes 22.8 billion euros. From the French-Italian manufacturer ATR Tehran bought 20 additional aircraft. Not linked to the Iranian nuclear program US sanctions are still in force.
