Guo Ping, Huawei Rotating Chairman said: "The US Congress has repeatedly failed to produce any evidence to support its restrictions on Huawei products. This ban not only is unlawful, but also restricts Huawei from engaging in fair competition, ultimately harming US consumers. According to the complaint, Section 889 of the 2019 NDAA not only bars all US Government agencies from buying Huawei equipment and services, but also bars them from contracting with or awarding grants or loans to third parties who buy Huawei equipment or services, without any executive or judicial process. Even worse, the restrictions on Huawei will stifle competition, leaving US consumers paying higher prices for inferior products," the company added. Terzioglu, however, said security vulnerability claims against Huawei cannot be evaluated in isolation from current developments in the market.
