Did he lift the ban? Or did he just speak about lifting the ban? Is the whole thing just a matter of DT saying "it's all good now" without the need for any official documents?

I'll take a wild guess and say this is probably a proclamation or executive order, which is written up by staff and signed by the President.

There doesn't seem to be anything official yet:

He lifted the ban on selling to them, not the ban on buying them

I find it interesting that this is front page news even in Africa.

Rest of the world relies on Huawei for phones and telecom equipments so I guess it is more pertinent to the people there.
