Intel Says It Received US Licenses to Sell to Huawei
Intel was granted U.S. export licenses to supply certain products to Huawei, an Intel spokesperson said in a Sept. 23 email. Intel received the licenses despite increased U.S. restrictions against the Chinese technology company, including the Bureau of Industry and Security's August revisions to the foreign direct product rule that were intended to block Huawei’s ability to access U.S. technology (see 2008170029). The Intel spokesperson declined to provide more details on the licenses. A BIS spokesperson said the agency does not comment on licensing issues.
