US receives over 130 applications from companies for licences to sell US goods to China’s Huawei

The standstill coincides with mixed messages from Trump in the US-China trade war, which have dimmed hopes for prompt decisions on license applications to sell to Huawei, the world’s top producer of telecoms equipment. Last week, Trump vowed to raise tariffs on $550 billion in Chinese imports, hours after China imposed new levies on $75 billion in US goods.
A spokesman for the Commerce Department said: “The interagency process, weighing license requests concerning Huawei and its non-US affiliates, is currently ongoing.” The US says the company can spy on customers and has sought to convince allies to exclude it from 5G networks. Huawei denies the allegations.Seeking to lure China back to the negotiating table in late June, Trump promised President Xi Jinping that US companies would be allowed to make some sales to Huawei, a gesture welcomed by US chipmakers and software companies. Huawei spent $11 billion on US components from US firms such as Intel Corp, Qualcomm and Micron Technology last year.
But the only relief seen by Huawei thus far was the extension in August of the temporary general license, which gives US companies a small exception to repair and maintain Huawei’s existing handsets and networks.
