A Chinese technology executive held in Canada on US fraud charges has left the country after a deal with prosecutors, following years of diplomatic tensions over her fate.
Meng Wanzhou, chief financial officer of Huawei, was detained on fraud charges in December 2018 at the request of the US.
On Friday, the US Department of Justice dropped an extradition request for her.
The judge subsequently ordered that she go free.
As part of the deal, Ms Meng agreed to a "statement of facts" admitting that she knowingly made false statements to HSBC.
The DOJ said Ms Meng had "taken responsibility for her principal role in perpetrating a scheme to defraud a global financial institution".
The DOJ also said said it was continuing to prepare for trial against Huawei.
The conservative government here in Australia has banned Huawei.
