As Trump uses an executive order to cut Huawei out of American market, Google is about to cut it off from Android and Play Store. 

Google issued a terse saying: Google will comply with the executive order and review the impact. In the future, Huawei will lose access to the operating system of Android and such popular applications as Gmail and Play Store. However, this will only be applied to the next version of cellphones produced by Huawei.

On the other hand, Huawei apparently has prepared for this ban in advance, for it has stored enough chips from US companies, able to last for three months.
