Any company doing business in the US will have to comply with the sanctions, e.g. Airbus.
Yes, and those companies will then need to decide if they want to do business with the US or Iran, as if that is a hard choice.
But I read today the EU is irked because it appears while the US is looking at a hard line on EU companies, the US is looking at waivers for its own companies.
The resistance is breaking down do to their resistance to anything that is good, seen as hatred for the good. They continue to tell the people what our values are. The more they do that the more we realize our values are not their values. Many of us refuse to buy into their hate.
First of all, who said ‘disastrous’? That’s your word, not the op’s. Maybe a Freudian slip?
But why don’t you ask these Democrats why this was such a bad deal. They all opposed Obama on this in 2015.
Chuck Schumer
Joe Manchin
Robert Menendez
Eliot Engel( ranking Dem on the Foreign Affairs Committee ).
They broke with their Patron Saint on this vote, something they rarely did. Must have had good reasons to do so. Today, as is the case with almost all Dem politicians, they now all defend the deal, because the mantra of the left is ‘Oppose Trump’, period.
Today’s Democrat politicians are gutless sheep, without a shred of integrity. Thank God Trump is there to bring some sanity to this countries leadership.
Though the deals carried multibillion-dollar price tags before industry standard discounts, analysts see minimal impacts on Airbus and Boeing from the U.S. decision. Both manufacturers have backlogs of orders assuring production for several years from other airlines.
“The total number of orders affected represents just 2% of the companies’ combined order backlogs,” Bernstein Research said in a note.
Airbus shares were about 1% lower Wednesday in Europe, trading just shy of their all-time high. Boeing shares closed 0.6% lower Tuesday and were up slightly in early New York trade Wednesday.
Iranian carriers, which have limited options to go elsewhere for new planes, are seen as the biggest losers.
