最新报道显示,IEEE(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers,电气和电子工程师协会)周一宣布解除对华为及其子公司员工编辑和同行评审活动的限制。
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) said on Monday curbs on employees of Huawei Technologies and its subsidiaries have been lifted, and they would be allowed to participate in a peer review process for its research papers.
上周,在美国将华为列入“实体名单”,称其危害国家安全后,IEEE宣布将禁止华为员工担任审稿人或编辑。
The U.S.-based engineers' association last week said it would bar Huawei staff from doing so, after the United States accused the company of being tied to China's government and effectively banned U.S. companies from doing business with it for national security reasons.
6月3日,IEEE中国网站发表了最新声明,表示在收到美国商务部进一步说明前,将撤销这些限制。
IEEE China said in a statement on its website it had decided to lift the restrictions after receiving further clarification from the U.S. Department of Commerce.
“我们此前限制性的做法完全是为了保护我们的志愿者和会员,规避相关的法律风险。在我们收到相关说明后,法律风险得以解除。”
"Our previous restrictive approach was wholly meant to protect our volunteers and members and to avoid relevant legal risks. After we received the relevant instructions, the legal risks were lifted," it said.
