China tells Canada to release Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou or face severe consequences


Trump is really playing hard ball here.

Given the relationship between between government, military, and high tech cooperations, the US is attempting to take the daughter of a government official hostage.


Quote:
Meng, 46, was taken into custody on Saturday, Dec. 1, 2018, on behalf of the U.S., while she was transferring flights in Vancouver, the tech company said. She’s accused of trying to evade U.S. sanctions on Iran. She is the daughter of Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei, a former Chinese military engineer worth $3.2 billion, according to Forbes magazine.
