On Thursday, The Washington Post published a front page article about American companies -- like CISCO -- lobbying against Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei Technologies.

Here's an excerpt:

"U.S. suspicions surrounding Huawei have presented a business opportunity for CISCO and other firms in the hyper-competitive world of telecom."

Williams Plummer, spokesman for Huawei in the U.S., discussed that issue and Monday's House Intelligence Committee report (see above) on Capital Insider.
