U.S Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross confirmed that the U.S. government will issue licenses to local companies seeking to sell components to Chinese vendor Huawei where there is no threat to national security, Reuters reported.
Speaking at a conference in Washington D.C, Ross affirmed that the Chinese company would remain on the Entity List, which means that export licenses would have to overcome a presumption of denial. Ross also said that the scope of goods requiring licenses would not change.
