Exclusive: Reuters has found new ties between Huawei and an obscure Hong Kong-registered company that could offer support to the U.S. case against the Chinese tech giant and its CFO, Meng Wanzhou by stecklow and mrochabrun

LONDON/SAO PAULO - An obscure Hong Kong-registered company stands at the center of the U.S. criminal case against China’s Huawei Technologies and its chief financial officer.

Until late 2007, two other top-level Huawei executives also had close ties with Skycom, corporate records filed in Brazil and Hong Kong show. Both men - Ken Hu and Guo Ping - currently are deputy chairmen of Huawei and serve on a rotating basis as the company’s chairman. Guo now has the chairman’s role.

The records show that Hu was based in Sao Paulo in May 2002 when Skycom acquired a small stake in Huawei Brazil, where he was then a manager. Hu’s LinkedIn profile states he also was president of Huawei’s Latin America region around that time. Hu, Guo and Meng are currently listed as the three directors of Hua Ying in the Hong Kong companies registry.

Indeed, during Skycom’s decade as a shareholder of Huawei Brazil until 2012, Skycom was always represented in the Brazilian company by people who were also representing Huawei’s interests, the documents show.The United States has been trying to get Meng extradited from Canada, where she was arrested at the request of U.S. authorities while changing planes in Vancouver in December 2018.

Thank you Reuters for reporting the truths

What stops Huawei from making undocumented sales, like US weapons to Islamic terrorists, and go for the elaborate, expensive arrangement?

Americans are not the world's police or the moral authority of what is allowed.. If there is one country in the world that needs to be sanction is America...
