UAE’s du says U.S. ban on Huawei not an issue for 5G network

DUBAI: United Arab Emirates telecoms company du has discussed U.S. restrictions on Huawei with the Chinese company and believes they will not hamper its 5G network, its chief executive said on Wednesday.

American companies were banned in May from selling most U.S. parts and components to Huawei without special licences, raising concerns about the company’s supply chain.
