France’s combative finance minister, one of its most senior government officials, risked a diplomatic spat after saying he avoids Boeing aircraft for the sake of his own family.

Le Maire’s comments were made in address to Airbus CEO Guillaume Faury who was present at the same event. He praised the quality of European industry, saying that in the last century the continent had produced “the best machine tools, the best planes, the best cars, the best chemicals”, and for now at least it still made “the best planes… by far”.

Boeing is set to lay off more than 12,000 Americans in the midst of the Chinese coronavirus crisis while planning an expansion in India., the Airbus boss did not join in with the gloating over Boeing’s woes, and said the problems of his competitor did not make him happy and that fatal accidents calls for “humility, not complacency”.
