Trump bars US companies from foreign telecoms posing security risk

US President Donald Trump has declared a national emergency barring US companies from using foreign telecoms equipment deemed a security risk - a move that appears to be aimed at Chinese giant Huawei.

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order allowing him to ban foreign telecoms deemed a 'security risk'.A senior White House official insisted that no particular country or company was targeted in the"company- and country-agnostic" declaration. "We urge the US side to stop the unreasonable suppression of Chinese enterprises on the pretext of national security and to provide a fair and non-discriminatory environment.".Earlier, David Wang, executive director of Huawei's board, shrugged off news of the upcoming emergency declaration.

China state sponsored enterprises are a threat to national interests and security of many countries.
