In a statement in Nigeria, the smartphone maker warned Trump that restricting it from doing business in the US will not make the US more secure or stronger.
“Instead, this will only serve to limit the US to inferior yet more expensive alternatives, leaving the US lagging behind in 5G deployment, and eventually harming the interests of US companies and consumers.
“In addition, unreasonable restrictions will infringe upon Huawei’s rights and raise other serious legal issues.”
The owners of the company said that they were ready and willing to engage with the US government and come up with effective measures to ensure product security.
“Huawei has made substantial contributions to the development and growth of Android around the world. As one of Android’s key global partners, we have worked closely with their open-source platform to develop an ecosystem that has benefitted both users and the industry.
“Huawei will continue to provide security updates and after sales services to all existing Huawei and Honor smartphone and tablet products covering those have been sold or still in stock globally.
“We will continue to build a safe and sustainable software ecosystem, in order to provide the best experience for all users globally.”
