Senators from the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence have expressed"deep concern" that President Donald Trump may ease the ban on controversial technology company Huawei to achieve a"favorable outcome" in trade negotiations with China.to U.S.
They stressed the smartphone maker's telecommunications equipment presents a"legitimate security threat" to the nation's network security, data privacy and economic security. Senators noted Trump previously reversed a ban on Chinese tech firm ZTE in June last year. "Allowing the use of Huawei equipment in U.S. telecommunications infrastructure is harmful to our national security," they wrote."In no way should Huawei be used as a bargaining chip in trade negotiations." The letter continued:"Instead, the U.S. should re-double our efforts to present our allies with compelling data on why the long-term network security and maintenance costs on Chinese telecommunications equipment offset any short-term cost savings.
The Trump administration added Huawei to a trade blacklist last month, accusing the firm of being"involved in activities contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States." The negative impact of the decision to add Huawei to the so-called Entity List, which limits the company's access to U.S.-made components, was almost instantaneous.
In this photo taken on May 27, 2019, a Huawei logo is displayed at a retail store in Beijing. This week, U.S. senators urged Trump not to ease the ban on the company.
