Huawei aims to fight back against US government with lawsuit

CNN  

Hong Kong CNN Business — Huawei plans to take its push-back against the US government to a new level this week. The embattled Chinese tech company intends to file a lawsuit against the American government over a law that bans US federal agencies from buying Huawei products, according to reports by The New York Times and the Financial Times citing unidentified sources. The US government says Huawei’s products could be used by Chinese intelligence services for spying — a claim the company has repeatedly denied. Meng, the daughter of Huawei’s founder, has filed a lawsuit against Canadian authorities alleging that the way in which she was detained and searched by border officers was an unlawful violation of her rights. Shortly after Meng’s arrest, Chinese authorities detained two Canadians on suspicion of activities that endangered China’s national security and sentenced another to death for drug trafficking.
