July 1 (Reuters) – Boeing Co (BA.N) said on Friday “it is disappointing that geopolitical differences continue to constrain U.S. aircraft exports” while responding to China’s three biggest state-owned airlines buying 300 jets from European planemaker Airbus SE (AIR.PA).

The U.S. planemaker added that it continued to urge a productive dialogue between the U.S. and China governments.

(This story was corrected to show Airbus is a European manufacturer, not French.)
