的事實陳述,這裏的關鍵在於:The statement of facts Meng admits to could contribute to the United States' ongoing case against Huawei.
-----------------------------------
The US case centered on whether Meng, who is also the daughter of
Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei, misled HSBC about Huawei's relationship with an Iranian subsidiary, Skycom, which the US alleges could have put the bank at risk of sanctions violations.
Meng appeared virtually in a court in Brooklyn, New York, and pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and wire fraud.
However, as part of the deal, Meng confirmed that the statement of facts in the deferred prosecution agreement are true. Those facts include that she misrepresented Huawei's relationship with Skycom to HSBC, according to court documents. If she says or implies otherwise, it could violate the terms of the deal and result in her prosecution.
"In entering into the deferred prosecution agreement, Meng has taken responsibility for her principal role in perpetrating a scheme to defraud a global financial institution," Acting US Attorney Boeckmann said in a statement Friday.

Assistant US Attorney David Kessler told the court that the parties had entered into a deferred prosecution agreement until December 1, 2022. If Meng complies with the provisions of the agreement, the US government will dismiss the charges against her on that date.
