BERLIN, Oct 9 (Reuters) - A trilateral ministerial meeting on the future of France, Germany and Spain's 100-billion-euro project to develop a European fighter jet has been postponed due to the political crisis in France, a German defence ministry spokesperson told Reuters.
The defence ministers of the three countries had been scheduled to meet mid-October in a bid to resolve obstacles blocking the next phase in the development of the project, known as FCAS, the spokesperson said on Thursday evening.
