Panasonic Suspends Some Component Shipments to Huawei Amid U.S. Blacklist
[size=1.125][size=1.125]TOKYO (REUTERS) - Japan's Panasonic Corp said on Thursday it has stopped shipments of certain components to Huawei Technologies to comply with U.S. restrictions on the Chinese company.
[size=1.125][size=1.125]"Panasonic has instructed employees to halt transactions with Huawei and its 68 affiliates covered by the U.S. ban," the company said in a statement.
[size=1.125][size=1.125]The Osaka-based company does not have a major production site for components in the United States, but it said the ban applies to goods having 25% or more of U.S.-originated technologies or materials.
[size=1.125][size=1.125]The company, which makes a wide range of devices for smartphones, cars and factory automation equipment, declined to comment on which components are subject to the ban and where they are produced.
[size=1.125][size=1.125]The U.S. Commerce Department blocked Huawei from buying U.S. goods last week, saying the firm was involved in activities contrary to national security.
[size=1.125][size=1.125]The United States temporarily eased the restrictions on Huawei on Monday, to minimize disruption for customers.
