When the measure was adopted, the Chinese brand reacted by ensuring that the decision responded to the fact that Huawei was threatening the "technological hegemony" of the United States. But simultaneously, the United States Government decided to extend a measure that was adopted in mid-2019: include Huawei on the Entity List , a blacklist by which American companies would no longer be able to do business with the Asian firm. The inclusion of Huawei in the famous US blacklist is the reason why Google stopped providing its services on the company's latest terminals. In other words: although Android is a free operating system, Google's Android that dresses most terminals on the market includes a series of services, such as the Play Store, which is the application store, Maps, Gmail or YouTube.
Huawei's new phones could not access these services, which is why the Chinese firm has been incessantly looking for alternatives in recent months. In May, the US Government decided to extend the legal Lithuania Mobile Number List framework that allowed the inclusion of Huawei on said list for another year. During these months, the inclusion of Huawei in the blacklist has not been entirely effective: it has experienced several extensions since many internet providers in rural areas of the United States had not been able to get rid of Huawei equipment in the installation of their networks.
Huawei phones sold before May 2019 could soon run out of Google updates Beyond these measures, the US has been putting pressure on its partners and other Western countries, encouraging them not to have Huawei stations present in their new 5G networks. A priori, he was not listened to. The European Union left the ball in the court of the member countries so that they could decide who would be the equipment suppliers for their 5G networks, although it proposed that risk actors not have a presence in the 'critical' area of the new infrastructure. The US has been systematically denouncing for months that Huawei is the gateway to the networks of Western countries for Chinese intelligence services.
