(The Epoch Times)—Chinese company Huawei Technologies will stand trial on multiple charges after a federal judge denied its bid to dismiss a long-running case against it.
On July 1, District Judge Ann Donnelly of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York ruled that there was sufficient evidence to proceed with a 16-count indictment against Huawei and its subsidiaries.
Huawei, which is closely tied to the Chinese communist regime, stands accused of racketeering, stealing trade secrets from six U.S. companies, and committing bank fraud.
With Donnelly’s ruling, the case will move forward toward trial. Currently, the proceedings are scheduled to begin on May 4, 2026.
Huawei stands charged with using a Hong Kong-based front company, Skycom, to conduct business in Iran in violation of U.S. sanctions and with misleading banks in order to facilitate more than $100 million in illegal money transfers.
Additionally, the indictment alleges that Huawei engaged in racketeering to expand its global brand.
Representatives of Huawei did not respond to a request for comment from The Epoch Times by publication time.
In November 2024, Huawei pleaded not guilty and called itself “a prosecutorial target in search of a crime.”
The upcoming trial is expected to last several months and could have significant implications for the ongoing tensions between the United States and China over technology, trade, and national security.
As part of the long-running federal investigation into Huawei’s business dealings, Huawei’s chief financial officer, Meng Wanzhou, also the daughter of the company’s founder, Ren Zhengfei, was previously charged and detained in Canada for nearly three years before the charges against her were dismissed in 2022 as part of a deferred prosecution agreement.
Huawei, based in Shenzhen, China, operates in more than 170 countries and employs approximately 208,000 people worldwide. The U.S. government has imposed restrictions on Huawei’s access to U.S. technology since 2019, citing national security concerns; Huawei has denied those accusations.
Along with manufacturing smartphones and consumer technology, Huawei is emerging as a manufacturer of advanced processing chips essential to the development of artificial intelligence.
The Epoch Times reported in June that the race to develop cutting-edge artificial intelligence and the hardware that powers it is tantamount to an arms race between the United States and the Chinese regime.
In June, Taiwan, a leader in the world of semiconductor manufacturing, imposed new export restrictions on Huawei, citing “national security concerns.” The move brings Taiwan’s priorities more in line with the U.S. policy aimed at denying communist China access to cutting-edge technology that could be used to further its military ambitions.
