BANGALORE, INDIA ¨C FedEx Corp. said on Sunday an operational error prevented a Huawei Technologies package from being delivered to the United States, just weeks after the U.S. delivery company said an error led to the Chinese firm¡¯s packages being misdirected.
China¡¯s Global Times newspaper said in a tweet later the company is likely to be added to China¡¯s ¡°unreliable entities list¡± due to the incident, which occurred days before U.S. President Donald Trump and China¡¯s Xi Jinping are due to meet in Japan to try to deescalate a trade war.
Trade tensions between the United States and China have extended beyond tariffs, particularly after Washington put Huawei, the world¡¯s biggest telecom gear maker, on a blacklist that effectively bans U.S. firms from doing business with the company.
