(Ottawa / London Composite Electric) Huawei's chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou extradition case will usher in a key node next week. The Canadian court will sentence her to whether she constitutes a crime in the country and the United States, that is, whether the case meets the extradition conditions of dual crimes.
According to Reuters, the British Columbia Provincial Higher Court announced the day before yesterday that the behavior of Meng Wanzhou will be pronounced next Wednesday (27th).The Extraction of the Canadian extradition law and the United States and Canada stipulates that the behavior of the extradition person must be identified by the two countries as a crime to meet the extradition conditions.
On December 1, 2018, Canada was arrested Meng Wanzhou, who was transferred in Vancouver to Vancouver on December 1, 2018.The United States officially prosecuted on January 28 last year, accusing Huawei, Huawei subsidiaries and Meng Wanzhou suspected of 23 crimes, including deceiving many financial institutions and US governments to conceal business activities with Iran.
If Meng Wanzhou was extradited to the United States and was established, he would face a prison period for up to 30 years in each charges.
Meng Wanzhou's lawyer believes that, unlike the United States, Canada did not sanction Iran when he started extradition procedures, which means that the Meng Wanzhou case does not meet the legal standards of dual crimes.The United States insisted that Meng Wanzhou's crime of committing financial fraud, which was criminal in the United States and Canada.
Vancouver's criminal defense lawyer and extradition expert Gary Botting analyzed that if the judge ruled that Meng Wanzhou would not violate the law in Canada, the rest of the case would be dead, and Meng Wanzhou could go home.
The Meng Wanzhou case has led to poor relations between China and Canada. In May, China arrested two Canadians on the grounds of harmful national security and was regarded as pressure on Canada on the case.
The Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau rarely criticized China the day before yesterday, saying that China ’s operation methods are different, and it does not seem to understand the independence of Canadian judicialness.He said at a press conference that Chinese officials had chanted two Canadians with Meng Wanzhou's case, which was disappointing.
In addition, Huawei, which is located at the center of the global 5G wave, is facing the predicament of the global supply chain.The US Department of Commerce stated on the 15th of this month that companies using US chip manufacturing equipment need to obtain US permission in order to sell chips from Huawei.New measures constitute the global contract chip industry because they all use equipment provided by the United States.Guo Ping, the chairman of Huawei, acknowledged that Huawei's business will inevitably be affected, but the company will do its best to find a solution.
