Huawei is set to face trial in the US over allegations of sanctions and trade secret theft. The case stems from a 2019 indictment, which marked a significant escalation in the US-China tech rivalry.
The indictment accused Huawei of violating US sanctions on Iran and of conspiring to steal trade secrets from T-Mobile. The FBI has mapped the 'Tappy' robot project, a collaboration between Huawei and T-Mobile, which is at the center of the trade secret allegations.
The South China Morning Post reports that Huawei is accused of stealing robot technology to gain access to T-Mobile's trade secrets. There is no apparent contradiction between outlets on the core allegations against Huawei.
