Huawei has another big problem. Biden signed a new ban

Huawei was hit by another major US trade restriction. President Joe Biden signed the documents that expressly prohibited the Federal Communications Commission – FCC) vissue licenses for five specific Chinese companies. In addition to Huawei and three lesser-known names, ZTE is also on the list. The decision is based on a warning from the FCC itself, which recently officially identified Asian giants as a threat to American security.

While until now the company could continue to receive licenses from the FCC, as there was only a recommendation on the table, The new decision is already the final stop. In the case of Huawei, the commission has confirmed over three thousand applications since 2018. At the moment, it is also illegal for technical solutions from the listed companies (including Huawei and ZTE, including Hytera Communications Corp., Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology and Dahua Technology) to appear in the US network infrastructure. The FCC also for local companies this year released about 35 billion crowns to exchange incriminated devices.

Do you think that the EU will react similarly?
