美国司法部的正式文件是这样的：https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/huawei-cfo-wanzhou-meng-admits-misleading-global-financial-institution
这里面最重要的文字是：
Her admissions in the statement of facts confirm that, while acting as the Chief Financial Officer for Huawei, Meng made multiple material misrepresentations to a senior executive of a financial institution regarding Huawei’s business operations in Iran in an effort to preserve Huawei’s banking relationship with the financial institution. The truth about Huawei’s business in Iran, which Meng concealed, would have been important to the financial institution’s decision to continue its banking relationship with Huawei. Meng’s admissions confirm the crux of the government’s allegations in the prosecution of this financial fraud — that Meng and her fellow Huawei employees engaged in a concerted effort to deceive global financial institutions, the U.S. government and the public about Huawei’s activities in Iran.”
她在事实陈述中的承认证实，在担任华为首席财务官期间，孟晚舟就华为在伊朗的业务运营向一家金融机构的高级主管作出了多项重大失实陈述，以努力维护华为与该金融机构的银行关系。孟晚舟所隐瞒的关于华为在伊朗业务的真相，对于该金融机构决定继续与华为的银行关系非常重要。孟晚舟的承认证实了政府在起诉这一金融诈骗案中的指控的关键--孟晚舟和她的华为员工参与了一项协同努力，就华为在伊朗的活动欺骗全球金融机构、美国政府和公众。
如果孟晚舟承认了欺骗汇丰银行，那么作为华为的CFO，其实就是华为犯下了欺诈罪，如果可以依着这一线索继续加大对华为的制裁，我觉得还可以算美国和华为各下一城，如果没有后续，请恕我直言：这个事件，美国输了。
所以我觉得关键在于孟晚舟confirm的这个misrepresentation和conceal有多严重，是否构成“欺诈罪”——在本法盲来看，起码这两个用词应该是没有lie严重，我挺失望的
