BEIJING – The United States Congress’s latest report on Chinese tech firms Huawei and ZTEdoes not represent a “final conclusion” and the focus of the report is to exchange moreinformation, US Ambassador Terry Kramer said Thursday.
Kramer, a telecommunications expert and head of the US delegation for the World Conferenceon Information Telecommunications (WCIT), said at a news conference in Beijing that thereport, which was released by the House Intelligence Committee on Oct 8, does not representthe position of the administrative branch.
Kramer said there is a great deal of room for economic and business cooperation between thetwo countries.
In the report, the committee suggested that US companies should avoid buying equipment fromHuawei and ZTE. The two companies have been described as being under the control of theChinese government and having entered the US market through unfair means.
