According to the report by Reuters, Qualcomm Inc on Friday received a license from the U.S. government to sell 4G mobile phone chips to China’s Huawei Technologies, an exemption to U.S. trade restrictions imposed amid rising tensions with China.
“We received a license for a number of products, which includes some 4G products,” a Qualcomm spokeswoman told Reuters.
A few months ago President Trump has signed an executive order giving the federal government the power to block US companies from buying foreign-made telecommunications equipment deemed a national security risk.
