I thought this story was already written but it seems not. It’s quite an old one now but in case you did miss it too, the Nokia-MS deal is facing some delay in China. China fears that when the D&S division is under MS control, Nokia will have no problems asserting their IP rights.

Thus for the deal to go through, China may be looking for a guaranteed limit on patent fees.

The US and Europe have approved the deal already. Europe however will be closely monitoring Nokia for post-merger licensing practices under EU antitrust rules.
