China has sent back planes it ordered from the US in its latest retaliation over Trump tariffs, the boss of aircraft maker Boeing has said.<\/p>\n

Kelly Ortberg said two planes had already been returned and another would follow after trade tensions between the two countries escalated.<\/p>\n

Boeing’s chief executive told CNBC that 50 more planes were due to go to China this year but their customers had indicated they will not take delivery of them.<\/p>\n

The US put 145% tariffs on imports from China and it hit back with a 125% tax on US products.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mr Ortberg added China “have in fact stopped taking delivery of aircraft because of tariff environment”.<\/p>\n

Boeing is America’s largest exporter with about 70% of its commercial aircraft sales outside of the US.<\/p>\n

Mr Ortberg said Boeing was assessing options to re-market 41 of the already built planes to other customers as there was high demand from other airlines.<\/p>\n

He said there were nine planes not yet in Boeing’s production system and he wanted to “understand their intentions and if necessary we can assign to other customers”.<\/p>\n

He added Boeing was “not going continue to build aircraft for customers who will not take them”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Later in the afternoon, Mr Ortberg told an investor call “there is not a day that goes by that we’re not engaged with either cabinet secretaries or either POTUS himself (President Trump) regarding the trade war between China and the USA.”<\/p>\n

He added he was “very hopeful we’ll get to some negotiations”.<\/p>\n

He said others in the Boeing supply chain were now exposed to tariffs – mainly in Japan and Italy where universal tariffs of 10% are being implemented.<\/p>\n

Brian West, Boeing’s chief financial officer said during the call “free trade policy is very important to us” and Boeing will continue to work to with suppliers to ensure continuity.<\/p>\n

Boeing has reported smaller losses for the first quarter of the year after it manufactured and delivered more planes.<\/p>\n

Production had slumped in 2024 due to a series of crises and a strike by about 30,000 American factory workers.<\/p>\n

It wants to increase output of its 737 MAX jets to 38 a month in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
