A 2019 U.S. indictment accuses Meng Wanzhou and Huawei with conducting business in Iran in violation of U.S. sanctions. SHANGHAI, CHINA -- Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou has accused Donald Trump of "poisoning" her chances of a fair trial, according to newly filed documents that outline her emerging strategy in fighting U.S. fraud charges.

Here are the main arguments and other key facts in a case with broad implications for U.S.-China-Canada ties:A 2019 US indictment accuses Meng and Huawei, the world's largest telecoms equipment manufacturer, with conducting business in Iran in violation of US sanctions. Huawei also at one point owned a stake in Skycom but sold its shares to another company, which the U.S. says also was controlled by Huawei.

Meng said Skycom was merely a "business partner" in Iran and that Huawei's dealings there did not violate global standards or US law.In new documents that become public this week, Meng's lawyers deny any deception.The new defence filings say the case was "poisoned" by statements from US President Donald Trump that Meng's lawyers say amount to political meddling.

HSBC instead was ordered to pay a US$1.9 billion fine, take corrective steps, and avoid new violations.
