U.S. Considers Export Controls on Boeing Parts Amid China Tensions

With China heavily relying on Boeing aircraft, restricting parts could serve as a potent countermeasure.

Trump emphasized the extensive Chinese dependencies on American aeronautical supplies during a White House briefing, as the U.S. evaluates leverage options.
