Huawei has unexpectedly found a powerful ally in the US sanctions company – Huawei US saction update
According to the Washington Post, the US Department of Commerce has forced the suspend measures to further limit US technology access to Huawei.
The US Department of Commerce next week has approved the US companies to further tighten the sales process of computer chips and other parts to Huawei. It has been objected to by the Pentagon and fears that these additional sanctions will be banned by US companies such as Qualcomm.
Intel and Micron’s revenue will be affected, leading them to overtake global competitors, which could impact the US military’s technological superiority.
Cabinet-level decisions on further measures against Huawei are expected next week, while President Donald Trump’s trade deal with China was signed last week, terming it as ‘real progress‘.
On the other hand, according to the Wall Street Journal, the US Department of Defense and the Treasury have opposed the Department of Commerce’s decision to tighten restrictions on Huawei.

This opposition came at a time when the US Department of Commerce’s trade with US companies is making it more difficult for US companies.
“We are aware of the stability of technology companies’ supply chains and their innovators,” Defense Secretary Mark Asper told The Wall Street Journal in this regard.
It may be recalled that in May 2019, the United States stopped trading with US companies by blacklisting Huawei. Huawei was blacklisted and called by the Trump administration a threat to US national security. The Huawei US sanction has seen many turns over the past couple of months.
