Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies went on trial Tuesday in Brooklyn, New York, on criminal charges after eight years of legal disputes with the US government to be as “fair and impartial” as possible. “China and the Communist Party… are not on trial,” he said, also noting that the current conflict between the United States and Iran should not influence the jurors’ judgment. Federal prosecutors said in court papers filed with the Eastern District of New York that Huawei carried out a decades-long extortion scheme to grow its global business. which the company denies.
