US vs Huawei ‘Princess’ in high-stakes court case

HUAWEI executive Meng Wanzhou has accused Donald Trump of “poisoning” her chances of a fair trial, according to newly filed documents that outline her emerging strategy in fighting US fraud charges.

The Chinese telecom giant’s chief financial officer was arrested on a US warrant in December 2018 during a stopover in Vancouver, and court arguments had thus far been focused on the narrow question of whether a US extradition request was lawful.
