ARM is UK afaik and Huawei is not banned in UK. Maybe after brexit US will force UK to ban Huawei in return for a trade deal (IF brexit goes through and I always maintained that brexit would never happen)

I didn't know they were owned by a Japanese company. Which makes this even weirder because Japan is really anti-Huawei. They were the first to ban Huawei.
