Huawei will reportedly sue the US government this week for banning its telecom products from federal agencies, according to the NY Times. The company is trying to defend itself from US charges that it’s a security threat, and the lawsuit could be a move to force the US government to reveal more about what it knows. Recently, Huawei and its CEO Ren Zhengfei have gone on the offensive, citing Edward Snowden and saying, „there’s no way the US can crush us.
The US Department of Justice (DoJ) has charged Huawei for allegedly stealing trade secrets from T-Mobile and violating US sanctions by carrying out business with Iran (Huawei has pleaded not guilty).
Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou was also arrested in Canada, by US request, for allegedly trying to bypass Iran sanctions. She was released on bail, but faces US extradition to the US based on the new DoJ charges.
