"We look forward to a timely resolution of this matter," Huawei said. The company highlighted again that it complies with all applicable laws and regulations in the countries and regions where it operates, including export control and sanction laws of the UN, US, and EU.
The Canadian authorities arrested Meng at the request of the US on Dec 1. Under the bail conditions, Meng can stay at her Vancouver home.
