The U.S. government expects to soon publish a new rule that would expand its powers to block sales of foreign-made goods to Chinese vendor Huawei, Reuters reported, citing two sources with knowledge of the matter.
In May 2019, the U.S. Department of Commerce added Huawei to its Entity List, citing national security concerns. This decision effectively banned the company from buying parts and components from U.S. companies without U.S. government approval. Under the order, Huawei will need a U.S. government license to buy components from U.S. suppliers.
