Mexico finally sells unwanted presidential jet to Tajikistan

Associated Press  

MEXICO CITY — After almost 4 1/2 years of trying, Mexico’s president said Thursday he has finally sold the unwanted presidential jet — to the former Soviet republic of Tajikistan. President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said the government of Tajikistan paid the equivalent of about $92 million for the Boeing 787 jet. López Obrador refused to use the jet after taking office on Dec. 1, 2018, saying it was too luxurious. “After a long time, we managed to sell the plane,” López Obrador said in a video clip from inside the plane, which he had previously refused to board.
