NCRI – A major partner of Huawei Technologies offered to sell at least 1.3 million euros worth of embargoed Hewlett-Packard computer equipment to Iranian regime’s largest mobile-phone operator in late 2010, Reuters reported on Monday.
The reports described the documents as new evidence of how Chinese companies have been willing to help regime in Iran to evade trade sanctions.
In October, Reuters reported that another Iranian partner of Huawei last year tried to sell embargoed American antenna equipment to the second largest mobile operator in Iran, MTN Irancell.
Earlier in December documents seen by Reuters showed that a partner of China’s Huawei Technologies offered to sell a Huawei-developed “Lawful Interception Solution” to MobinNet, first nationwide wireless broadband provider in Iran just as MobinNet was preparing to launch in 2010.
The system’s capabilities included “supporting the special requirements from security agencies to monitor in real time the communication traffic between subscribers,” the report said.
