Britain’s decision to suspend tariffs on Boeing aircraft and other U.S. products has stunned aircraft manufacturer Airbus’ European rival and exposes a growing divide between the U.K. and Europe in aerospace investment, according to industry sources and analysts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Britain said Tuesday it would suspend tariffs on Jan. 1, describing the move as an attempt to reduce a long-running dispute over aircraft subsidies that has dragged the United States and Europe into an “eye-for-an-eye” tariff war, Reuters <\/a>reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The decision comes amid broad trade talks between Britain and the United States and ends a united front on tariffs between Airbus’ political supporters, Britain, France, Germany and Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airbus downplayed the measure, saying the company’s goal remains “to find a negotiated solution to this long-running dispute to avoid the loss of tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In private, several European business sources said that the UK’s surprising move threatened the most serious cross-Channel split in the aerospace sector in decades. Two of the sources said that in other capitals it was considered a “betrayal” of Airbus, which has 14,000 employees in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul Everitt, head of the British aerospace lobby group ADS, said Britain had acted unilaterally without reciprocal action from the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dispute over subsidies is the biggest case ever handled by the World Trade Organization and comes to a head just as Britain is leaving the European Union, forcing it to seek new trade agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
