Huawei gets support from UK universities

Several universities in the United Kingdom are standing by Chinese tech giant Huawei despite doubts raised by other Western bodies, including the United Nations and NATO over security concerns.

Several organizations in the UK, including Oxford University and Prince Charles' personal charity the Prince's Trust, have severed ties with the technology company recently.

National mobile phone network Vodafone said it will temporarily halt use of the Huawei equipment in its core mobile phone networks and BT said it would remove Huawei equipment from its 4G network.
