Huawei and Meng are charged with bank and wire fraud and conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud in relation to skirting American sanctions on Iran. Meng was arrested in Canada in December and is still there fighting extradition to the U.S.

cnbc.com/amp/2019/06/19…
The U.S. government alleges that Meng lied to HSBC and other banks about Huawei's relationship with an unofficial subsidiary in Iran called Skycom in order to get banking services.
"In an exclusive interview with CNBC's Deirdre Bosa on Wednesday, Ren said the banks "have full knowledge of all those business activities," referring to the allegations of bank and wire fraud against Huawei and Ren's daughter, Meng Wanzhou, who is also the company's CFO."
"It's the first time Ren has spoken publicly about the specific details in the case against Meng and Huawei."

Sanctions paralyzing Iran’s economy or else?
If a country’s economy is defective, sanctions can be strangulating for it.
Iran’s economy relies on oil exports, on the one hand, and imports, on the other hand.
irannewswire.org/sanctions-para…
To #Iran, imports act like airways for their economy and sanctions are blocking it. When you can’t breathe, you start to choke. So this is why sanctions have a vital role.
Water crisis
Environmental crisis
Addiction and social corruption caused by poverty
Iran’s leaders name these ‘the super-challenges’ with dozens more of social problems. It’s these crises that have brought the society to an explosive point.

Iran (un() Deal Day THREAD: 1) @realDonaldTrump hasn't been consistent on a lot, but he has been consistent on the Iran Deal. He's been against it for years and called it a "disaster" and "insane" on the campaign. So this time he's not flip flopping.
2) Pulling out of the deal may have been on faulty analysis of what we could achieve vis-a-vis a better deal. Wonder what @CIA @ODNIgov assessed was or was not achievable and if @POTUS thought he knew better
3) Also wondering whether this approach was based on any analysis that NO deal is better than THIS deal or was this an @WhiteHouse negotiating tactic that misfired
