Samsung Display gets US licenses to supply some panels to Huawei
With US-China ties at their worst in decades, Washington has been pushing governments around the world to squeeze out Huawei, arguing that the telecom giant would hand data to the Chinese government for spying. Huawei denies it spies for China.
From 15 September, new curbs have barred US companies from
supplying or serving Huawei.
Samsung Display, which counts Samsung Electronics and Apple
as major customers for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display screens,
declined comment.
Huawei was not immediately available for comment.
It is still unclear whether Samsung Display will be able to
export its OLED panels to Huawei as other firms in the supply chain making
components necessary to manufacture panels would also have to get U.S.
licences.
Samsung’s cross-town rival LG Display said that it and other
companies, including most semiconductor companies, need to get licences to
resume business with Huawei.
Last month, Intel Corp said it had received licences from US
authorities to continue supplying certain products to Huawei.
