According to a Commerce Dept. filing, although the time limit has been extended for a few months but it does not change the fact that the ban will be imposed on Huawei by the US President Donald Trump. As the company was charged with national security and spying issues on the US grounds. And according to the officials, these charges have major implications for the US and the Chinese technology companies. But now, the US government is granting a temporary license that will allow Huawei to continue doing business with the American technology firms. However, that also comes with validity. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross said, “The Temporary General License grants operators time to make other arrangements and (gives) the Department space to determine the appropriate long-term measures for Americans and foreign telecommunications providers that currently rely on Huawei equipment for critical services. In short, this license will allow operations to continue for existing Huawei mobile phone users and rural broadband networks.” According to Reuters, the US government has been tying the rope around Huawei for quite some time now. It has become one of the largest smartphone companies in the world in terms of shipments of devices. Huawei is also among the first technology companies to bring a working 5G smartphone. Prior to this, we saw that the daughter of Huawei’s president was arrested in the US and after that, the tensions between the company and the US government began. But the main reason is that the US government believes that the Huawei is being backed up by the Chinese military and that its equipment could be used to spy and provide information to the Chinese government.
It was last week when President Trump had declared a “national emergency” which gave him the power to blacklist the companies which put a potential national threat to the security of the US. This move was followed by the US Department of Commerce putting a total ban on Huawei’s business with the US companies. This ban prevented the US companies to stop selling or buying technologies to and from the Chinese brand. But what will a 90-days ban implementation prove and what will it lead to? Will Huawei come up with a solution or will the matter escalate further? Only time will tell. For the latest gadget and tech news, and gadget reviews, follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
