Boeing Comany accused rival EADS (European Aeronautic Defence and Space) company of having courted Iran and other countries at odds with the United States and said this should figure in awarding a potential $50 billion U.S. Air Force refueling plane contract.
EADS, headquartered in Paris and Munich, “continues to do business with countries that are not friendly to the United States,” Timothy Keating, Boeing’s vice president of government operations, told a small group of reporters.
