Author: Liang Zheng
Liang Zheng notes that one of the most encouraging signs that emerged from the June 2019 meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G20 Summit in Osaka was the softening of Trump's stance on the sanctions the U.S. administration had imposed on Chinese telecommunications equipment provider Huawei. Crucially, Trump said U.S. companies can continue selling telecom components to Huawei.
