(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) Airbus and Qatar Airways have settled a dispute over surface
damage on grounded A350 jets, the companies said on Wednesday,
trend reports citing
reuters .
The 'amicable settlement' ends a $2 billion row over the safety
of Europe's premier long-haul jet - an unprecedented public rift
that had led Airbus to revoke dozens of other jet orders from Qatar
ahead of a scheduled June court trial.
The companies said the deal was not an admission of liability by
either party, both of which would drop their legal claims and 'move
forward and work together as partners'.
French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire welcomed the
settlement.
The announcement comes after Reuters reported that a deal could
be reached as early as Wednesday.
