Google has suspended business with Chinese tech giant Huawei that requires the transfer of hardware, software and technical services, and the provision of relevant services to company, confirmed Lu Kang, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, at a regular press conference Monday.

"China will pay attention to the progress of the situation and support Chinese enterprises in defending their legitimate rights through legal methods," added Lu.

After the partial suspension, Huawei issued a statement saying that the company has made substantial contributions to the development and growth of Android around the world.
