SEATTLE, April 7 (UPI) -- Airplane manufacturer Boeing has been granted license by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to sell parts for commercial airplanes to Iran, a business practice previously prohibited by a trade embargo and economic sanctions which ban the sale of aircrafts and parts to the country, according to NBC.
Tim Neale, a spokesperson for Boeing, told NBC the license is for a limited time as defined by the terms of an agreement Secretary of State John Kerry reached with Iran last year.
