当地时间8月17日,加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省高等法院在温哥华开庭,就孟晚舟引渡案再次举行公开听证。
自2018年底孟晚舟于温哥华被捕以来,时间已经过去了20个月。然而,时至今日,事件仍有不少疑点。
作为一种更先进的通讯技术,5G在西方为何屡屡被妖魔化?
一些外国媒体、政要“不厌其烦”地“关照”华为,意欲何为?
美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)、福克斯新闻网(Fox News)、英国广播公司(BBC)等多家知名媒体在报道中屡屡提及华为。美国总统特朗普更是将华为与“危险”二字放在一起,话语中充斥着对华为这一中国科技公司的偏见。
这个案件与7年前孟晚舟与汇丰银行某高管在香港一个餐厅的会面有关——
会面交谈的内容又为何会落到美国人手中,成为针对孟晚舟的“关键证据”?
汇丰银行——一家与近代香港联系紧密的国际银行,它在孟晚舟被捕事件中又扮演了怎样的角色?
针对这些疑点,CGTN记者刘欣展开了进一步调查,试图揭开事件背后一些不为人知的细节。
The B.C. Supreme Court of Canada heard arguments on Monday on claims of privileges over documents requested by lawyers representing Huawei's CFO Meng Wanzhou in her extradition case. Meng attended the proceeding via telephone from her Vancouver home.
It has been almost 20 months since her arrest in Canada for alleged crimes of bank fraud. As the U.S. presses ahead with efforts to seek her extradition and squeeze Huawei's global business, her fate remains precarious.
HSBC, the investment baking company, has also emerged as a key player in the case. Supposedly, the case started with a meeting between Meng and a senior executive from HSBC at a restaurant back in 2013.
What happened during that meeting? Why did HSBC hand over information about Huawei to U.S. authorities? What might be the role of HSBC in this? Is the U.S. move against Huawei part of a well-planned "plot"? Liu Xin investigates.
