The vessels are located in the Russian Federation under a leasing agreement.
The Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation and Russian airlines discussed how to keep Boeing and Airbus aircraft in the domestic fleet.
Recall how I wrote the day before Topnews, Boeing Corporation announced that it is temporarily suspending technical support and the supply of spare parts for aircraft used by Russian airlines.
The same was stated by the aircraft manufacturer Airbus.
The reason for such decisions was called the Russian military special operation in Ukraine, after which the United States and the EU adopted a number of sanctions.
According to RBC, citing a source in a large leasing company, Deputy Minister Igor Chalik held a meeting with representatives of the Russian aviation industry at which options for preserving the fleet of foreign-made aircraft were considered.
It is known that the European Union has banned the supply of new aircraft in Russia, and also canceled previously concluded leasing agreements, according to which the Russian side used aircraft.
The validity period of the documents is limited to March 28, 2022. After that, the owners of the vessels demand to return them to their homeland.
One of the proposed options was the nationalization of the aircraft of the two companies.
But the final decision on Airbus and Boeing products has not yet been made, the insider of the publication stressed.
