European Union joins Huawei 5G network development despite US and Australia rejection

·

Against the recommendations established by the United States, the European Union has opened its doors to Chinese Huawei for the development of the 5G network under strict conditions. This EU action comes after a similar decision was made by London, both of which could potentially upset the US technology department.

It is recalled that Washington has pressured its allies to exclude Huawei, in which they suspect espionage in favour of Beijing. Australia and Japan have already complied with American “exhortations”. However, the EU chose to diversify, despite being threatened by the US with a trade war.

Huawei has welcomed the European Union’s decision, welcoming an “objective and fact-based” approach to 5G security.

Despite being approved by the European Union, it is unknown if Greece will attempt to establish the 5G network under Huawei.
