Huawei: The US is declared a state of emergency because of its products

Their government has been around for quite some time United States, has warned its allies not to buy 5G equipment from Huawei.

Η The company, already considered a threat to national security, is the world leader in 5G networks and the second largest mobile phone maker. U.S. politicians fear that China's communist regime may have commissioned Huawei to spy on consumers and businesses.

In the past, the company has denied acting on behalf of China in espionage matters. Huawei President Liang Hua himself said told Reuters that if someone asked him to do so, he would get a negative answer. It is still willing to sign a non-espionage agreement with the various governments and that its equipment is safe. His comments also apply to the United Kingdom, as Britain is expected to decide whether it will allow Huawei to use the equipment. A government spokesman said he had set strict rules on how the Chinese company's products would be used. So soon the British government will decide what will happen and mobile companies will have to agree with the decision.

CNBC Reported that the president of the USA, signed a presidential decree declaring the country in a state of national emergency, for threats in the field of technology. Although he does not specifically mention Huawei, Trump expects that with this decree, government agencies will completely ban the use of Huawei products. The chairman of the American Telecommunications Commission said it was an important step in securing US networks. It is worth mentioning that the signature gives the Minister of Commerce, in cooperation with the competent officials, to block the transactions concerning telecommunications and information technology, arguing that it puts an unacceptable risk to national security.

Those who worked in the US government are banned from using Huawei mobile phones, and they are also banned from selling on military bases. In 2018, Verizon and AT&T canceled the sale of the Huawei Mate 10, although they had initially announced that it would be available through their networks. It is almost certain that there was pressure from the US government not to sell. Last month, the B&H Photo store in New York City began taking pre-orders for the Latin American version of the Huawei P30 with a 1-year warranty.

All this controversy is moving in the middle of a trade war between the USA and China, as both have introduced extra taxes on their trade. Although cell phones are not yet in the products, if the controversy continues, they will be next on the list. At this point the manufacturers will have to decide if they will raise the price of the smartphones. An analyst at Morgan Stanley said that Apple should raise the price of the iPhone by € 143. At the moment, the cases for iPhone and iPad are on the tax list, but Apple has not increased their price. In other words, Apple is losing money from all this controversy.
