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.
