In the first few months after the election of Donald Trump, the US government issued two conflicting questions to telecommunications companies, asking them what they thought about selling equipment to third countries that defy US policy on national security. One question apportioned consideration of the Trump trade agenda to companies that sell smartphones. The other asks whether the company selling the Israeli-made equipment should receive an exemption from the military export control plans.

Huawei, one of the US's biggest technology multinationals, is close to a speed test facility at its plant near Hangzhou, Zhuhai. Huawei - almost entirely owned by the Chinese government - wanted the hall, needed to test industrial equipment at a recent speed test, demolished. In response Huawei said it had a strong record of dealing with the Chinese government on trade, and holding talks with potential buyers whose values would not be compromised.

Comprising four companies which were previously split into five, thanks to the NSA scandal by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, Huawei employs more than 73,000 employees in China and has a large international array of businesses, particularly in global supply-chain management. More recently Huawei officials have been visiting Washington, DC.

Links with China have tarnished Huawei china's international image, but the US currently ranking second for U.S. calls all but guarantees continued demand for the Chinese alternative to Nokia and Siemens. Huawei is prominently operating hardware stores in the flat lands adjacent to the White House, which sells weaponry, electronic accessories and hacking tools to investors.

In 2006, soon after Huawei started to compete with Nokia, all but six of Huawei's 4,000 employees across China resided in the nation�s northern region. By 2008, Huawei had expanded beyond technology to become a key part of the communication system, equipment components and data storage systems of major telecommunications companies.

By 2001 Huawei had made it to the second spot in the Swiss National Bank rankings of �datacom Business Group Quality of Company Inc. (QCOI)� for CEO-Long-term Justified Achievement (QCOI-shortly abbreviated QLCA). QLCA 1973 provides an in-depth barometer of the country�s profit-ability and competitiveness in the local market. China held this position for 35 years up until 2000, but went on an unexpected loss (in Zurich 24/12-18) at the end of 2008.

Huawei now ranks third in the Swiss QCO
