The US Department of Defense will remove China's Xiaomi Corp from a government blacklist, a court filing showed, clearing the way for any future American investment in the smartphone maker.
The filing stated that the two parties would agree to resolve their ongoing litigation without further contest, bringing to an end a brief and controversial spat between the hardware company and Washington.
Xiaomi did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
Earlier this year the US Department of Defense, under the Trump administration, designated the firm as having ties to China's military and placed it on a list that would restrict US investment in the company.
Xiaomi quickly responded by filing a lawsuit against the US government, calling its placement "unlawful and unconstitutional" and denying any ties to China's military.
In March, under the new Biden administration, a federal judge temporarily blocked enforcement of the blacklisting.
Shares in Xiaomi rose over 6 per cent in Hong Kong as news of the decision spread.
