Top diplomat says Chinese firms should not be “silent lambs”
- Sunday | 10th March, 2019
BEIJING (Reuters) – The Chinese government’s top diplomat, State Councillor Wang Yi, said on Friday that China supports Huawei Technologies’ bid for legal redress in the United States, adding that Chinese companies should use “legal weapons” and not be “silent lambs”. In December, Huawei’s chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou was arrested in Canada at the United States’ request and faces possible extradition. Meng’s arrest quickly turned her into a central figure in a trade war between two economic superpowers. Answering a question on growing tensions between China and the United States, Wang said that “substantive progress” had been made in those trade talks. The lawsuit marks another rift between China and the United States, which spent most of 2018 slapping import tariffs on billions of dollars worth of each other’s goods.
