Analysis Chinese telecom giant Huawei – the most prominent target of the Trump administration's decision to declare a national emergency to protect American IT infrastructure by banning technology provided by foreign adversaries – on Monday received a reprieve that allows it to do business with US suppliers.

But its days are numbered – Huawei has a license to do business with US suppliers until August 19. If that day arrives and the US and China have been unable to reach an agreement to resolve their trade differences, then not only will Huawei equipment be forbidden on US networks but the company and 68 of its foreign competitors will be denied the ability to buy from US suppliers.
