Huawei is all over the news since the past few hours due to the ban it received from the US government. The country has blacklisted the Chinese smartphone manufacturer into a list called "Entity List," which means US-based companies will no longer be able to do business with Huawei. This resulted in Google putting up a ban on Huawei and deciding not to provide any services going forward.
This has raised many eyebrows and people have tons of questions going on their minds. Since Huawei runs on Android and most people using Android rely on Google services, this can be a huge issue in the international markets.
In regard of recent development about Android Suspension, Huawei has released a statement saying “Huawei has made substantial contributions to the development and growth of Android around the world. As one of Android’s key global partners, we have worked closely with their open-source platform to develop an ecosystem that has benefitted both users and the industry."
"Huawei will continue to provide security updates and after-sales services to all existing Huawei and Honor smartphone and tablet products, covering those that have been sold and that are still in stock globally. We will continue to build a safe and sustainable software ecosystem, in order to provide the best experience for all users globally,” they further added.

According to the statement, the company is promising to keep the existing Honor and Huawei devices updated. Now as Google has banned their services, Huawei will provide their own eco-system developed on top of Android Open Source Project. The company has been providing its own services in China for a long time. This means instead of the Google Play Store, the users will be using Huawei App Store on the upcoming Huawei and Honor smartphones.
