Boeing wraps up 737 MAX plea deal

US aviation giant Boeing has finally pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit fraud and agreed to pay at least $243.6 million after violating a 2021 agreement with the US Department of Justice, according to a court document cited by Reuters.

The company allowed potentially risky operations at its plants and failed to ensure the accuracy and completeness of its records for major airplanes, the Justice Department stated, laying out reasons why it believes the aircraft maker violated the 2021 deferred prosecution agreement.

In May, the Justice Department said Boeing had violated its obligations under an agreement that protected the company from criminal prosecution for misrepresenting a key software feature related to fatal 737 MAX crashes in 2018 and 2019 that left 346 people dead.

Worst US president defeated: Trump 

"As you know, three days ago we defeated the worst president in the history of our country - crooked Joe Biden. He quit because he was losing so badly in the polls," US presidential candidate Donald Trump said at a campaign event in the country's North Carolina.
