He added the action was taken \u201cwith the broad, bipartisan backing of congressional leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the government\u2019s strongest move yet against Huawei, a Chinese telecommunications giant whose equipment has spread around the globe in the race to provide 5G cellular service.
