WASHINGTON (Reuters) -China, Mexico, the European Union, Japan, Canada and many airlines and aerospace companies worldwide urged the Trump administration not to impose new national security tariffs on imported commercial planes and parts, according to documents released Tuesday.

Separately, U.S. planemaker Boeing ( BA ) cited a recent trade deal announced in May with Britain that ensures tariff free treatment for airplanes and parts.

"The United States should ensure duty-free treatment for commercial aircraft and their parts in any negotiated trade agreement, similar to its efforts with the UK," Boeing ( BA ) said in a filing with the U.S. Commerce Department made public Tuesday.
