Huawei row: President Donald Trump hints at executive order to block Huawei 5G sales

President Donald Trump said he may use an executive order to stop Huawei Technologies Co. from selling advanced telecommunications equipment in the U.S.

“Well we’re not doing anything right now,” Trump told reporters when asked about an executive order. “So we do that with the attorney general if we do anything.”

“I guess there’s a question as to whether or not that’s being included in the agreement,” Trump said in the Oval Office during a meeting with Chinese Vice Premier Liu He as trade talks continued.
