LONDON, May 2 (Reuters) - Britain will support the strategic
aviation industry in "any way it can" as the sector suffers from
the coronavirus pandemic which has grounded planes and seen
carriers seek government support around the world.
"The aviation industry is both an extremely important one
strategically for us as a country and one which employs a great
deal of people," housing minister Robert Jenrick said on
Saturday.
"It's one we want to support in any way we can," he told a
news conference.
