At that time, President Trump has signed a presidential decree that poses an information communication risk in the United States and prohibits the trading of security and economic threat products and services. The Executive Order states that 'an open investment environment for information and communication technology is important for the growth and prosperity of the US economy, but this openness needs to be balanced with national security'.
At the time of writing the article, it is not clear that Huawei products are strictly prohibited from trading, and it is decided that the relevant products will be decided after consultation with government officials such as the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of State. However, the Ministry of Commerce is in the process of listing up companies with national security risks, and it is almost certain that they include Huawei, which the United States strongly regards as dangerous.
