The US Commerce Department confirmed Wednesday it has begun issuing licences for some US companies to supply non-sensitive goods to China’s Huawei Technologies Co Ltd.
In May, the Trump administration put Huawei on an economic blacklist, citing national security concerns, but on Monday agreed to again extend a temporary general licence to assist some US rural network operators.
US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross told Fox Business Network late Tuesday that the department has "had 290-something requests for specific licences. We now have been starting to send out the 20-day intent to deny letters and some approvals."
