Trump, during a meeting with the chief executives of seven technology companies, agreed to an industry request that the Commerce Department provide 'timely licensing decisions' on sales to Huawei
President Donald Trump huddled with the chief executives of seven technology companies, including Google CEO Sundar Pichai, at the White House Monday as his administration delivers wildly mixed messages on Chinese telecom company Huawei amid preparations for the next round of trade talks with China.
Under the terms of the trade blacklist, that license comes with the presumption of denial, meaning it's normally all but impossible to obtain. Trump, however, has suggested the possibility of easing restrictions on Huawei as a concession to Beijing amid efforts to navigate the ongoing trade war with China. He most recently said some sales to the company could resume after he met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Japan last month.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer also attended, a source familiar with the meeting told POLITICO. The CEOs of Intel, Cisco, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Micron and Western Digital rounded out the guest list.Sign Up Trump's feints at easing up on Huawei have drawn the ire of China hawks in both parties who fear the president could choose a trade deal over national security. Policymakers have long been concerned the company is in cahoots with the Chinese government. Indeed, a bipartisan group of senators introduced legislation last week that would prevent Trump from removing Huawei from the trade blacklist until security concerns have been addressed.
