LONDON (China Daily/ANN): The vice-president of Chinese telecommunications equipment company Huawei, Zhang Jiangang, has urged the British government to reconsider restrictions on its operations which he says were motivated by politics rather than evidence-based concerns about cybersecurity.
Zhang said the United Kingdom's economy will suffer because of severe delays in the rollout of fifth-generation network technology, or 5G, if the nation proceeds with a phasing out of the Huawei kit from its telecommunications infrastructure.
