The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) is assuring consumers in the UAE that they will be able to continue using their Huawei devices amid efforts by the US government to blacklist the Chinese company.
The TRA said on thursday that it had been in talks with representatives from the Asian tech giant in order to ascertain how the US trade ban will impact customers in the UAE.
Huawei guaranteed that all its products being sold in the local market, including its stock in warehouses, will not be affected by the recent developments.
The TRA assured that the rights of consumers in UAE are of top priority. All vendors and manufacturers of the telecom devices have to protect the consumers’ rights and provide all related services to keep stability of the UAE telecom market.
The United States’ Commerce Department announced this month that due to security concerns, Huawei has been added to its “Entity List,” effectively restricting the world’s largest manufacturer of telecommunications equipment from dealing with US companies. The department said the firm is deemed to have been “engaged in activities that are contrary to US national security or foreign policy interest.
