Japan Reverses Decision and Prepares Huawei Equipment Launch

A Japanese telephone company is preparing the launch of Huawei's latest models of cell phones and tablets, after postponing it in the context of Google''s Android system restrictions faced by the Chinese brand.
 
The firm INJ plans to soon release to the market equipment such as the P30 Lite and P30lite phones, and the MediaPad M5 lite tablets, encouraged by the decision of US president, Donald Trump, to allow again the technology business between his country and Huawei.
 
INJ and three other Japanese operators last May postponed the sale of the Chinese devices and even canceled previously requested shipping orders, until we have the certainty of a stable supply amidst the pressures of the United States.
 
Google, Qualcomm, Intel and Xilinx, among other companies, were forced to immediately terminate contracts with Chinese technology after the Department of Commerce included it in a blacklist.
 
This step followed the declaration of a national Trump emergency in order to prohibit the firms of his country from using telecommunications equipment manufactured abroad, since they supposedly threaten security.
 
The president's conversation on Saturday with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, led to the reinstatement of Huawei to the northern market.
 
But it still has not clarified whether it was eliminated along with 70 affiliates of a blacklist formed in the middle of a recrudescence of the crusade against technology to block him, especially in the expansion of the 5G network.
 
Huawei, meanwhile, welcomed again access to American products, but stressed that it will maintain its own systems and equipment development plan to reduce dependence on foreign suppliers. Its president of the firm, Ren Zhengfei, considered the decision good news, but minimized the impact of that measure on the projects currently undertaken by the corporation and assured that they will continue to focus on completing them to guarantee total self-sufficiency.
