Huawei and ZTE effectively barred from doing business with US firms.
The ongoing battle between the US and Huawei has taken another serious turn after the latter was officially declared a threat to national security by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
Both Huawei and compatriot ZTE have been labelled as threatening entities by the FCC, meaning both companies are now essentially blocked from doing business with US operators and playing any role in the rollout of current or future 5G networks.
The FCC ruling means US telecom companies and operators are now blocked from accessing the government’s $8.
