semiconductor companies that use American software and technology to design and manufacture chips can no longer sell to Huawei without first obtaining a license from the US Commerce Department.

The United Kingdom in July banned Huawei from its 5G network, reversing a January decision to allow it a limited role in the build-out. UK officials cited uncertainty surrounding Huawei’s supply chain as the reason for the rapid about-face.
