I don't foresee extraditions merely for 'doing business with Iran' because that's not what she was extradited for.
The EU and China have been trading billions with Iran for quite a long time [1]
Meng was picked up for a business relating to shipping US tech to Iran via Hong Kong.

The crime is not trading with Iran, the crime is defrauding the US financial system in order to do it. For some reason, this is framed as though Huawei is accused of trading with Iran completely independently of the United States. That's not the case at all.

Is that not exactly what I said in response to a comment claiming she was selling US tech to Iran?

Do you foresee extradition requests for EU executives doing business with Iran?
