The ambassador of China threatened Germany if it may exclude Huawei Technologies Co. as a 5G wireless equipment supplier.
“If Germany were to take a decision that leads to Huawei’s exclusion from the German market, there will be consequences,” Ambassador Wu Ken said during the Handelsblatt event last Saturday, December 14. “The Chinese government will not stand idly by.“
German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier warned last Sunday, December 15, against passing laws that approve firms.
“We shouldn’t turn against individual companies and instead insist that all electronic and high technology components used in Germany meet the highest security requirements,” German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier said in an interview that was published in the newspaper of Der Tagesspiegel. “Whoever doesn’t meet them is out.“
The administration of the United States President Donald Trump has sought to enlist US allies in forcing out Huawei as a supplier of 5G connectivity. The legal action against the Federal Communications Commission marked Huawei’s latest attempt to fight US penalties and restraints that threaten the world’s largest networking business.
Ambassador Wu Ken also said that Huawei has no legal obligation to provide information to the government of China.
“Could we say one day that these German cars are no longer safe because we’re in a position to manufacture our own cars?” Ambassador Wu Ken said. “No. That is pure protectionism.“
