The Trump administration has said it does not want one of the world's biggest phone carriers, China Mobile, to provide telecom services within the US, citing national security concerns.
State-owned China Mobile applied to the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a licence to do so in 2011.
But the US Department of Commerce has recommended the licence request be denied.

This tactic has been employed for decades, but really found its feet in 2016 with the election of US President Donald Trump. Over and over again, Russiagaters –those who blame Russia for Trump’s election– have advanced crazy conspiracies, based on very flimsy evidence, to tie Trump to Russia. It’s been such a raging success that world-weary folks across the pond in Europe have started to catch on, too. When it all gets to be too much, just blame Russia.
In one of the latest examples of over-eagerness to blame Russia for all the world’s ills, Molly McKew, who bills herself as an “information warfare expert” and has been ridiculed by analysts for her contributions to the field, drew a link between violence against refugees in Idaho and “Russian info ops” aiming to “inflame” tensions over refugees. When McKew saw the news that a Boise man had stabbed nine people at an apartment complex that houses refugees, that was enough for her to make the link to Moscow.
