Judge Rules Extradition Trial For Huawei CFO Can Continue

Meng Wanzhou, Huawei's CFO, was arrested in Canada at the US's request for bank fraud and violating US sanctions against Iran. A Canadian judge ruled that the case meets the standard for double criminality, meaning the US charges are also crimes in Canada. The ruling does not determine Meng's guilt but allows for extradition proceedings. Huawei expressed disappointment but remains hopeful for Meng's innocence.
