According to sources, both the companies have already applied for US approval.

The U.S. imposed various restrictions on Huawei, raising concerns over national security. The latest order, released in August, restrict foreign semiconductor companies from selling chips to Huawei that are produced using American technology.  Many companies are now seeking permission to keep selling parts to Huawei.

The US government continues to take no opportunity with regard to the security of its country, whether it is the COVID-19 or other problems with cybercrime, including data leakage and other staff. In addition, the US administration has pressured policymakers around the globe to squeeze Huawei out. Because they claim Huawei would transfer all user information for espionage to the Chinese government.
