Globe says BCE, Telus hear U.K. okay with Huawei for 5G

The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is set to defy U.S. President Donald Trump and allow Huawei to supply components for Britain's 5G wireless network on a restricted basis. The Globe's Paul Waldie writes that in a call last Friday, Mr. Trump pressed his case, and on Sunday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he fully agreed with Mr. Trump. The United States has been waging a global effort to get countries, including Canada, to ban Huawei equipment. Canada has yet to decide, and last week, Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said the government's decision would be based partly on economic and geopolitical considerations. So far, Australia, New Zealand and Japan have banned Huawei, while the European Union and other countries are considering restrictions. Britain's National Security Council, which consists of the Prime Minister, senior cabinet ministers and security service representatives, is expected to approve the use of Huawei equipment in non-core parts of the wireless network, such as antennas and base stations. The United Kingdom's National Cyber Security Centre determined last year that the risks associated with Huawei's technology could be managed.
