Huawei focus for West's prejudicial view of China

A politically-motivated cloud is obviously gathering over China's private telecom technology giant Huawei. It was reported that the telecommunications company Orange has ruled out using Huawei products in its core 5G network in France and Germany's Deutsche Telecom says it's reviewing purchases of Huawei equipment.

Australia and New Zealand have already announced their decision to block Huawei from getting involved in the building of their 5G networks. While in the United Kingdom BT announced the week before last it was stripping Huawei equipment from its core 4G cellular network.

Given the repeated reports about Washington's pushing of its allies to shun Huawei equipment and technology, it is difficult not to view the detention of Huawei's chief financial officer in Canada early this month at the request of the United States as being politically motivated. It is therefore reasonable to believe the reports of a clandestine meeting by the "Five Eyes" countries to plan a way to strangle the development of Huawei.
