US government to issue licenses to companies wanting to trade with Huawei

Late last month at the G20 summit, US president Donald Trump confirmed American companies will continue to sell components to Huawei granted that they doesn’t pose a threat to national security. Later on it became clear that US companies would be allowed to sell widely available components which are sold in other markets while more sensitive equipment would remain off limits.

Commerce Secretary Ross stated that the new licenses will still have to oblige the previously issued component availability confinements. Furthermore, he restated that the Commerce Department will only issue licenses after evaluating the potential of national security risks.

While Huawei will remain in the infamous Entity List, this is a positive step towards resuming normal operations and prevent large scale losses for both sides.
