China Telecom Giant Huawei Hints US Pressure Hurting Sales

Associated Press

   SHANGHAI - Huawei's chief strategist said Tuesday the company would
   have become the world's number one smartphone maker by the year's end
   if not for "unexpected" circumstances -- a hint that pressure from the
   U.S. may be hurting its sales.
   The comment by Shao Yang at the Consumer Electronics Show in Shanghai
   comes as Washington intensifies pressure on other countries to exclude
   Huawei Technologies from next-generation, or 5G, telecom networks where
   it actually is considered an industry leader.
   "If we had not encountered anything unexpected, we would have become
   number one in the world by the fourth quarter," Huawei's chief
   strategist, Shao Yang, said at the Consumer Electronics Show in
   Shanghai.
   "But now we have to wait a little bit longer to achieve that," he said,
   without referring directly to President Donald Trump or the trade war.
