China warns foreign tech firms after Huawei ban

Source: Vsoft, 18/06/2019


Citing people familiar with the matter, The New York Times reports
the companies summoned include Microsoft, Dell and Samsung.
Last month, the Chinese government said it was putting together an
“unreliable entities list” of foreign companies and people.
China’s ministry of commerce said the list would contain foreign
companies, individuals and organisations that “do not follow market
rules, violate the spirit of contracts, blockade and stop supplying
Chinese companies for non-commercial reasons, and seriously damage
the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies”.
This after the Trump administration added Huawei to a trade
blacklist, enacting restrictions that will make it very difficult for
the company to do business with US companies.
According to Reuters, a person at US software giant Microsoft said
the company’s session with Chinese officials was not a direct warning
but it was made clear to the firm that complying with US bans would
likely lead to further complications for all sector participants.

It adds that Microsoft was asked not to make hasty or ill-considered
moves before the situation was fully understood.
The US has for months been rallying its allies to cut Huawei out of
planned 5G networks, citing “national security threats” due to the
company’s close ties to the Chinese government.
Huawei has denied installing any backdoors in its networking
equipment for alleged government spying.
Last month, Huawei filed a motion for summary judgement as part of
the process to challenge the constitutionality of Section 889 of the
2019 National Defence Authorisation.
It called on the US government to halt its state-sanctioned campaign
against Huawei because it will not deliver cyber security.
Huawei is the second biggest smartphone maker in the world behind
Samsung. It recently overtook Apple, which is now number three in the
smartphone market. Huawei is the world’s biggest telecommunications
equipment-maker, leading in technologies like 5G
