    Actually China is sending a message - if you arrest our well-known citizens on trumped up bullshiat we can also arrest your well-known citizens on trumped up bullshiat.

    VANCOUVER/LONDON (Reuters) - Huawei Technologies Co Ltd’s chief financial officer faces U.S. accusations that she covered up her company’s links to a firm that tried to sell equipment to Iran despite sanctions, a Canadian prosecutor said on Friday, arguing against giving her bail while she awaits extradition.

    So this is "an eye for an eye" North Korea tactic? LOL I thought China is different. Guess not. And tbh I've never known Huawei much except seeing some real estate listing photos with the tacky mark "Huawei 2.0" in the corner taken by some cheap agents. Always thought Huawei is just some cheap google clone phone. LOL

    China has now arrested a second Canadian citizen, businessman Michael Spavor, on trumped up charges. China is applying the lesson that two can play this game. I will note that China has used tit-for-tat retaliation for years; this is nothing new.

    LOL China always has to get the upper hand in everything, even in detaining people. You detain 1, I detain 2!! All for a maker of the cheap google-clone phone. LOL Well now we know why China is dominating the world. It's because of its competitive spirit in everything. LOL

    Huawei doesn't want further whiffs of suspicion around its motivations, even in cases where it's not directly implicated. The Chinese tech giant has fired Weijing Wang, an employee arrested in Poland over spying allegations despite security officials saying the espionage wasn't directly tied to Huawei. (Engadget)

    Huawei Denials

    Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei has denied claims that his company provides an espionage conduit for the Chinese government. Ren's daughter, Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou, was arrested in Canada last month over alleged sanctions-busting, and Huawei just sacked an employee who was arrested on spying charges in Poland. Ren: "I support the Communist party, but I will never do anything to harm any country in the world." Financial Times
