Huawei Technologies equipment will be banned from Britain’s 5G network, UK Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden announced on July 14, 2020. London earlier planned to allow Huawei a limited role in Britain’s super-fast wireless infrastructure, giving it up to a 35 per cent involvement of the overall project, but excluded the company from sensitive parts of its network. The major policy reversal came after the US threatened to cut off security cooperation with the UK and imposed new sanctions that will bar companies around the world from using American-made machinery or software to produce chips for the Chinese telecoms giant.
