In a remarkable development, President Trump has thrown an olive branch to controversial Chinese telecom firm ZTE .
The company, which sells telcom network equipment and consumer devices including smartphones, said on Wednesday that it would cease its main business operations after the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a seven-year export restriction for the company, resulting in a ban on U.S. component makers selling to ZTE.
