Huawei's CFO doesn't want her extradition hearing to be televised in case it attracts Trump
According to Bloomberg, Meng's lawyers argued that putting the hearing on TV would raise the chances of US President Donald Trump undermining her case.
In a court paper, the lawyers reportedly said televising it "amplifies the risk that the President of the United States will once again intervene in the Respondent's case, or harbour resentments, that are both threatening and intimidating."In the aftermath of Meng's initial arrest,that he'd "certainly intervene if he thought it was necessary" to secure a good trade deal with China.
Though it sells relatively few smartphones in the US, it has been hampered in its attempts to provide network equipment for 5G installation in the US and elsewhere. In May, Huawei was placed on a so-called "entity list" that made it illegal for US firms to trade with it . This was due to concerns Huawei could double as a vehicle for Chinese government spying, something the company has consistently denied.
