Sounds like bullshit. My friend works at Huawei Russia Research Institute (Moscow one) - there are no plans to close it, they are actively hiring, and just last week new employees from China arrived there. What's the point of expanding the R&D center if Huawei plans to halt its business in Russia? For example, Intel's R&D center in Nizhny Novgorod has closed after Intel temporarily withdrew from Russia - officially, the employees were not fired but sent on "vacation" while keeping their salaries as Intel does not want to lose the specialists. Same with R&D centers of NVIDIA and some other companies

Agreed. She's a wannabe white person who's now upset her Anglo masters aren't treating her equally.
Check her FB...either way her book is nothing but a showcase of that "Me" Rican product. Ask her what she thinks about China on Twitter and her answer(s) will tell you as much.
Can we get back to news? Regardless of the speculation about her views, comments like this on this forum are uncalled for.
We have been hearing and will continue to hear that such such Chinese companies have stopped doing business in Russia or have cut off relationship with Russia etc. There might be a few cases that this might be the true, for example if you're selling high-profile equipment with significant US components. But majority of the times, this is projection or preempting. There are obviously many cases where the business dealings or transactions are disrupted or affected temporarily because payments, sourcing or indeed risk assessment, but they will be sorted out over time.
In this particular case, I believe Huawei has 5G contracts with Russia; why should Huawei renege on them when Huawei's 5G business is under US sanction to begin with? Majority of the western countries have banned Huawei's 5G business in their countries, and Huawei does not have much of a smartphone business left or at least they're not sourcing from the US anymore.
How do the rounds work in French elections?
A 2nd round occurs when nobody has simple majority i.e. >50% in the 1st round.
Then in the 2nd round run-off it's first-past-the-post i.e. whoever has the most votes wins. Not necessary to win >50% of votes at this point.
