Part of me wonders if Trump was briefed on the Russian law going into effect last month :
Nov 2019 - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-50507849
> Russia has passed a law banning the sale of certain devices that are not pre-installed with Russian software.
>
> The law will come into force in July 2020 and cover smartphones, computers and smart televisions.

August 2020 - https://www.state.gov/announcing-the-expansion-of-the-clean-...
> Clean Store: To remove untrusted applications from U.S. mobile app stores. PRC apps threaten our privacy, proliferate
> viruses, and spread propaganda and disinformation. American’s most sensitive personal and business information must be
