CHINA-U.S._ HUAWEI FOUNDER SAYS HE DOES NOT NEED THE U.S.
|
In wide-ranging interview with The Wall Street Journal (November 6), Huawei’s 75-year-old founder, Ren Zhengfei, struck a defiant tone on the Trump administration’s recent moves against the company, while also praising the U.S.’s entrepreneurial spirit. He said “We can survive very well without the U.S. The China-U.S. trade talks are not something I’m concerned with.” He added Huawei isn’t a factor in the trade war because “we have virtually no business dealings in the U.S.” He also said “there has been no confrontation with the U.S.” and said he would welcome a visit from Mr. Trump now or after he has left office. He also said “We would certainly give him a warm welcome".
