Tensions between the Chinese corporation Huawei and the USA regarding national security threats can be taken lightly. According to the British publication The Observer, English operators still see the development of 5G networks on Huawei equipment.
The Vodafone company was the first to announce the timeline for implementing a project to provide ultra-fast internet to its users. Communications are built on Huawei equipment. Mobile operators O2, Three, and EE did not specify their positions. But few customers are likely to want to be let go. So the Chinese are firmly established in the United Kingdom.
Huawei: US political games
The Chinese confirmed that they have already signed 50 contracts for the supply of equipment for deploying 5G telecommunications networks. On average, 150 thousand base stations are planned to be installed. The contracts only mention radio frequency equipment, not core network components. What exactly the Chinese will supply remains unknown.
The UK government has not yet made a decision regarding the operation of 5G networks on Huawei equipment, but the controversy has already arisen. Americans are outraged by Europe’s betrayal, which instead of supporting sanctions against China, purchases products worth billions of dollars.
Perhaps the UK government will make concessions to the USA to maintain good relations with its overseas neighbor. If Huawei is subjected to sanctions in Britain, operators will already lose 5-6 billion pounds. Overall, it is very unpleasant that people from across the ocean meddle in the affairs of another country, dictating who to be friends with and who not to. Ultimately, end users suffer, as they will miss out on 5G internet.
