BOSTON (AP) – The U.S. government is imposing new restrictions on Chinese tech giant Huawei by limiting its ability to use American technology to produce semiconductors abroad. The Commerce Department said Friday the move aims to prevent Huawei from making a run around existing U.S. sanctions. The U.S. government blacklisted the Chinese tech company a year ago, deeming it a national security risk. But numerous loopholes exist. China reacted angrily.
