International tensions
are on the rise as Germany contemplates
restricting the use of components from Chinese Tech giants Huawei and ZTE 5G Network.
The Chinese
Embassy in Berlin has issued a stern warning by stating that China will not stand
idly if Germany precedes with this decision without proving a security threat.
The statement
was quoted from the email sent, “if the German Government really decides to
move in this direction without proving that Chinese products pose a security
threat to Germany, we will not stand by idly.”
The statement
further added, “Should Germany unjustifiably exclude companies, this would not
only be a violation of the Principle of fair competition, but would also harm
Chinese companies and Germany itself.”
Germany’s interior ministry has proposed
restrictions after a review highlighted the country’s heavy reliance on these Chinese
suppliers. The outcome of this debate significantly impact not only Germany’s 5G
Network, but also international relations.
