US allows companies to export to Huawei but blacklisting to continue

Top negotiators from both countries talked by phone on Tuesday for the first time since the two leaders agreed to a tentative truce

The US said it would grant licenses allowing companies to export goods to Huawei Technologies Co. but won’t remove the Chinese technology giant from an export blacklist, as talks between the world’s two biggest economies resumed.
 
The Department of Commerce will “issue licenses where there is no threat to US national security,” though Huawei will continue to face export controls, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said on Tuesday in Washington.
 
The move clarifies President Donald Trump’s remarks that he would allow US companies to resume supplying some of their products to Huawei, after meeting his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping
