Battle of UK: China & US fight for Huawei 5G in UK
US to pressure UK to stop using Huawei 5G equipment
US officials will meet with their British counterparts before a key UK decision on using Huawei products, sources say.
The United States is making a final pitch to the United Kingdom in the run-up to a UK decision on whether to upgrade its telecoms network with Huawei equipment amid threats to cut intelligence-sharing ties, people with knowledge of the matter told the Reuters news agency.
The UK is expected to make a final call on how to deploy Huawei equipment in its future 5G networks later this month. It has been weighing US-led allegations that Huawei’s telecoms equipment could be used to spy, against the UK’s relationship with China and industry warnings that banning the firm outright would cost billions of dollars.

华为迅速表态，说对英国的决定感到受到保证。
英国还在一个分开的公告中说，英国将继续与客户合作共同建设5G网络。
法新社发自华盛顿的消息说，美国政府一名匿名官员表态，对英国政府有限度允许中国华为参加英国5G建设的决定感到失望。英国的决定对盟国美国的施压充耳不闻。
据该官员指，将5G建设交由设备安全存有问题的一方检控，就没有安全可言。
这位美国匿名官员还说，美国将继续毫不松懈与英国合作，以期排在5G建设中除所有美国认为不合安全规范的供货与设备。
