BREAKING: Huawei’s Meng Wanzhou speaks out before flying back to China after deal with US

Meng Wanzhou, Huawei’s chief financial officer and the daughter of the company’s founder, Ren Zhengfei thanked everyone who had supported her as she was granted leave by a Canadian judge to return to China, Friday. The top executive of Chinese communications giant Huawei Technologies resolved criminal charges against her as part of a deal Friday with the US Justice Department in a case that roiled relations between Washington and Beijing. The deal calls for the Justice Department to dismiss fraud charges late next year in exchange for Meng accepting minor responsibility for misrepresenting her company’s business dealings in Iran.
