May 21, 2021 (newstodate): Iran is keen to see sanctions lifted, allowing the country to revive its aircraft orders placed with Boeing and Airbus.
  Speaking to Iranian TV, the country's transportation minister says that two companies have already started works to return to contracts they signed Iran from 2016 before the United States re-imposed its sanctions on Tehran in summer 2018.
   The total orders placed with Airbus comprised 118 aircraft including 45 A320, 45 A330, 16 A350, 12 A380, as well as 20 ATR aircraft.    
   In April 2017, Iran Air also signed contracts with Boeing for a total of 80 aircraft including 50 Boeing 737Max, 15 Boeing 777-300ER and 15 Boeing 777-9 aircraft, and another 60 aircraft to Aseman Airlines comprising 30 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft with deliveries to start from 2022 and options for a further 30 aircraft.
   According to the Iranian minister, Airbus and Boeing have been waiting for the results of ongoing talks in Vienna on Iran's nuclear deal as they seek to resume their contractual obligations regarding Iran.
