Huawei expects to secure 5G contracts in Germany

Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies Co has said that it expects to win 5G network contracts in Germany, which would mark the latest vote of confidence from foreign telecom carriers despite security allegations the company faces in some overseas markets.

Huawei is expected to deliver components needed for building 5G networks to major telecom carriers operating in Germany, namely Deutsche Telekom, Vodafone and Telefonica, said Vincent Pang, president of Huawei Western Europe, in an interview with German newspaper Rheinische Post.

A group of telecom operators at this year's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, either confirmed new orders or expressed a willingness to do business with the world's largest telecom equipment maker.
