Sweden Banned 5G Erection from Huawei Due to the National Security, China Opposed the Abuse of the Idea of “National Security”

Following the US and the UK banning Chinese companies Huawei from building 5G networks, Sweden Postal and Telecommunications Administration announced today (20th October) that they decided to prohibit Huawei and ZTE from participating in the local 5G network erection. They also required the local telecom to remove all equipment produced by Huawei and ZTE from existing core functional devices before 2025.

Sweden will have an auction of the 5G spectrum next month. Klas Friberg, the Head of the Domestic Security Service of Sweden, described China as one of the biggest threats in Sweden, referring to China’s large-scale collection of intelligence, theft of technology and research to assist its economic development and military strength. He also worried that allowing Chinese entrepreneurs to participate in the local 5G network erection was hard to guarantee their national security.

The US Grants Funds to Help Companies Replacing Chinese Corporate Communications Equipment

The US Federal Communications Commission unanimously approved the allocation of US$1.9 billion to subsidize US companies to replace equipment provided by Chinese telecommunications companies.

The funding aims to subsidize the removal of related communication equipment in rural areas of the United States. The number of customers of eligible companies must be less than 10 million, and the replacement equipment must be purchased before the end of June last year to apply for funding.

Last year, the committee determined that Huawei and ZTE constitute a national security threat to the US communications network. American companies cannot use government funding to purchase equipment from Huawei or ZTE. It refers to the high risk of equipment being controlled by external parties and stipulates that companies must destroy and remove their equipment.
