摘要

As CommsWire reported, FCC chairman Ajit Pai gave his blessing to the deal in May. This came following national security clearance after both Deutsche Telekom, the majority owner of T-Mobile, and Sprint's majority owner, Japanese firm SoftBank, agreed to exclude Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei as a supplier.
