to create the new architecture of global super high speed five g. internet technology officials say that threatens u.s. national security as americans we should all be concerned about the potential for any company beholden to a foreign government especially one that doesn't share our values to burrow into the american telecommunications market and the charges come against the backdrop of the damaging u.s. china trade war which has stretched on for months trade talks between the two countries will resume on wednesday rob reynolds al-jazeera well the chinese government says the indictments against unfair and immoral because now they will just as the foreign ministry said with no evidence they using the state power to discredit and attack does ignited companies the sort of behavior is unfair and

immoral as a department responsible for the same history we consistently encourage chinese companies to act in accordance with international rules and market principles and develop foreign economic cooperation on the basis of abiding by local laws when i joined brown joins us live now from the chinese capital a dream so how is china likely to respond then to these charges i mean hawaii is seen as a poster child for china's economy. well you got a flavor of how china is feeling in that sound bite that you just played china is very much darren playing the victim card they believe that while way is the victim of a smear and slander campaign being orchestrated by the white house they say the real goal of the united states at the moment is to try to contain china's rise and in particular to try to stop the spread of wild ways influence this is not just any telecommunications company daryn it is the second largest manufacturer of smartphones anywhere in the world it has come

a long way very quickly and it's selling smartphones all around the world its sales are increasing at a time of these allegations about the technology that it's using now the united states cases yes weiwei is a global giant but it's managed to achieve that by stealing our technology where do we go from here well i think this is going to hurt while ways image but for the moment they remain defiant and they're saying that when it comes to you know allegations that were way uses technology that enable spying china is saying present to us with the evidence you haven't done that but what the united states has done now when it comes to the issue of intellectual property as it wrapped all these charges in a legal ribbon and presented them to china and i do and the timing of the charges is interesting isn't it given that trade talks between both sides are set to resume in washington this week. it's very interesting indeed yes and i

think the chinese are looking at the timing of these charges with a good deal of suspicion saying why are you doing this now just a few days before talks resume between the united states and china to try to resolve their their wider trade differences but of course the issue of war way is feeding into those tensions at the moment and let us not forget china is also demanding today once more that the united states dropped its extradition demand against the wall way chief executive officer who's now being held in vancouver the united states has said that it's going to press ahead with their extradition that means we're moving into sort of new territory this week because will that affect the trade talks taking place in washington certainly the united states says that what one way is accused of is very much at the heart of the u.s. complaints against the way china does trade thank you now the

know how strongly we think that president lied oh the national assembly the opposition and most importantly american personnel are not harmed this is an unequivocal statement on our part is there a circumstance under which their forces were good but the president has made it very clear. on this on this matter that all options are on the table while the united states makes the rats and withholds money the opposition is offering immunity to members of the military who joined them more than twenty countries have now recognize one why don't know as venezuela's legitimate leader and more are threatening to do so unless new elections are held christian salumi al-jazeera washington pakistan's supreme court is due to hear an appeal in a controversial blasphemy case that spot nationwide protests last year a christian woman assia bibi was acquitted of them spending eight years on death row she was sentence for insulting the prophet muhammad the court's dismissal of

the conviction led to three days of protests the mother of four was expected and leave the country if the appeal is rejected welcome on haida joins us live now from islamabad come all so how important is this supreme court decision on which way is it like it's a good. well this is indeed a very crucial hearing that the supreme court they're conducting in less than an hour they're likely to take up that petition which warned that the death penalty should be maintained however the court had ruled back in october of twenty eight that because of discrepancies in the prosecution as well as their witnesses that. continue and she would be acquitted it will be important to see what decision the court they. fled the country because here dead dead to a life is now back he's going to be in court i need very confident that the poor decision

is dragged out on the thirty fourth of october which led to roy right that you mentioned sorry. if the court upholds her acquittal will she be then free to leave at the start i mean there are reports her daughters have already left the country to canada. absolutely she had been offered asylum from canada and now you mentioned there are reports that both her daughters are now in order and that is likely to be transferred one three find out that the court had indeed the equator and then she is likely to leave the country but that of course will be a closely guarded secret because of the reaction that it can get cross that country specially from those groups which have been protesting against her equipped just briefly come all what's likely then to be the political fallout from this case the
