☆ Germany Reviews 5G Network Safety, Opening Door to Possible Huawei Ban
  + stars: | 2023-03-07 | by ( William Boston | Bertrand Benoit | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Germany has previously resisted U.S. calls to ban the use of equipment made by Huawei in its critical infrastructure. BERLIN—The German government has launched a review of the country’s 5G high-speed mobile telecommunications networks as part of a broader revamp of its relationship with China, suggesting Berlin is moving closer to banning Chinese suppliers from German networks. The move marks a shift for Berlin, which for years resisted U.S. calls for its European partners to ban the use of equipment made by Huawei Technologies Co. and state-controlled ZTE Corp. in their critical infrastructure. Washington has warned that the existence of Chinese components in its allies’ 5G networks made them vulnerable and could compromise intelligence sharing between Washington and Berlin.
