Microsoft CEO defends US military contract
Barcelona (CNN Business)Satya Nadella has defended Microsoft’s $479 million contract to supply augmented reality systems to the US military that has been criticized by some of his colleagues.
The CEO said Monday that while he would continue to engage with employees and consider Microsoft’s role as a corporate citizen, the company would not “withhold technology” from democratic governments.
“We made a principled decision that we’re not going to withhold technology from institutions that we have elected in democracies to protect the freedoms we enjoy,” he told CNN Business at Mobile World Congress.
