Tensions between the US and China continue to increase. The U.S. administration will impose sanctions on Huawei employees. Claiming that China "provided material" to human rights violations in the Sincan Uyghur Autonomous Region, the US administration announced that it would impose visa restrictions on some employees of Chinese technology firm Huawei.
In a written statement by U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, the Chinese Communist Party's statements regarding human rights violations in the country's Xinjiang region are among the top in the world.
Mike Pompeo recalled that within the framework of the Immigration and Nationality Law, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has the right not to admit people who believe it will "harm US foreign policy". "Today, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs imposes a visa restriction for some employees of Chinese technology firms that provide material to regimes with global human rights violations," Pompeo said in his statement.

Message to Telecommunications Companies Operating Worldwide
Underlining that the technology giant Huawei is among the companies that support human rights violations, Pompeo considered Huawei as a "branch" of the Chinese Communist Party, which censored political opponents and made large-scale detentions in camps in Xinjiang.
"Some Huawei employees provide material support to the Chinese Communist Party regime that committed human rights violations. Telecommunications companies around the world should consider this message: If they do business with Huawei, they're doing business with human rights violations." commented.
