MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said on Thursday that he has received a proposal for the purchase of his predecessor’s luxury jet, which the government has been attempting to sell.
“There is a proposal… we’re waiting on a new appraisal, and it’s very likely that the plane is sold,” Lopez Obrador told his daily news conference. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner had been valued by a United Nations-backed entity at about $130 million.
