They can create an app store on Android. Nobody is stopping them.

The same can't be said for ios

They can create an Android Store. But many apps depends on Google APIs or applications (Maps, Drive, Contacts, etc) and will require changes.
Huawei could make a UI toolkit similar to iOS, and use the Swift open source project, and encourage developers to port their iOS apps.
This seems like an expensive risky overkill to trust Apple, when JavaScript solutions work on every platform.
