Η Google suspends critical services to Chinese company Huawei as a result of escalating trade war between the United States and China.
In practice, this means that users of Huawei devices will not be able to install app updates or access Google services such as YouTube, Gmail, and Maps.
Essentially through the trade war, Trump just "killed" the Huawei devices which, after not receiving software updates, security upgrades and technical support, will become dysfunctional and vulnerable to viruses.
It only remains to be clarified by the US whether the decision also concerns old owners of Huawei mobile phones or only the new ones.
Huawei devices will be able to consistently use the basic version of Google's Android operating system, which is open source and publicly available to everyone.
However, they will be excluded from a wide range of Google's "ecosystem".
Google's decision to suspend its partnership with Huawei - one of the world's largest makers of mobile phones and tablets - comes just days after the US government blacklisted the Chinese giant.
As a result, US companies need a special license to continue trading with Huawei.
"We are complying with the order and we are considering the consequences", said a Google spokesman.
The Chinese company has not made an official comment, but in the past its executives have stated that it will seek to develop its own operating system if necessary. Part of the required technology has been developed for years.
It is noted that Huawei is the second largest company in the world in the sale of smartphones, using only the Android operating system.
The Chinese company will be hit by the smartphone market and will find it difficult to dethrone South Korean Samsung from 2020 as its sales ambition, as is its ambition, as many consumers will probably avoid buying a mobile phone that will no longer have access to Google Play App Store, or security updates.
Trump "signed" the exclusion of Huawei from the American market

Although the text does not name Huawei or China or any company or country, Trump administration officials have repeatedly described the Chinese company as a "threat" and pressured US allies not to use its equipment to develop fifth-generation mobile networks. (5G).
Trump's move comes at a very sensitive time in US-China relations, amid an exchange of additional tariffs between the world's two largest economies and a conflict over what the Trump administration considers to be unfair trade practices. on the part of China.
The US government believes that the equipment of Huawei - the company that is in the third place in the world ranking in the smartphone market - can be used or used in the future by the Chinese government for espionage. The Chinese company, which categorically denies the claim, has not commented on the development so far.
