Chinese electronics major Huawei, which the US has deemed a national
security risk, has urged employees not to harbour any anti-US
sentiments, the media reported.
Ren Zhengfei, Founder and chief
executive officer of Huawei Technologies, has reportedly asked its
employees to "never let anti-US sentiment guide their work".
"Ren
also urged employees not to harbour nationalist sentiments and to
recognise the 'strengths of the US, see the gap (between Huawei and its
US competitors) and learn from them," the South China Morning Post
reported on Friday.
The CEO reportedly adressed a memo to the
company's staffers that was circulated weeks after US President Donald
Trump threatened to impose some $150 billion in tariffs on Chinese
imports.
"The memo from Ren has come as a surprise because of the
setbacks faced by Huawei in its efforts to expand operations in the
US," the report added.
Richard Yu Chengdong, the chief executive
of Huawei's Consumer Business Group, reportedly accused the US
government and some industry rivals for playing politics to keep them
out of the US market.
Meanwhile, the Chinese smartphone major is
working on its own proprietary Operating System (OS) since 2012 after a
US investigation into the company.
The company, which is also the
world's biggest telecommunications equipment manufacturer, would ditch
Google's Android platform amid reports that it is under investigation by
the US for breaching sanctions against Iran.
According to media
reports, the US House Intelligence Committee found after a year-long
investigation that Huawei Technologies and ZTE Inc, were a "national
security threat because of their attempts to extract sensitive
information from American companies and their loyalties to the Chinese
government".
