Britain bans China's Huawei from its 5G network
LONDON:
Huawei
will be completely removed from the UK's 5G
networks by the end of 2027, the UK government
announced on Tuesday after a review by the
country's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) on
the impact of US sanctions against the Chinese
telecommunications giant.
In the lead up to this complete removal of all Huawei
kit from UK networks, there will be a total ban on
the purchase of any new 5G kit after December 31,
2020.
The decision was taken at a meeting of the UK's
National Security Council (NSC) chaired by Prime
Minister Boris Johnson, in response to new US
sanctions against the telecom major imposed in
May which removed the firm's access to products
which have been built based on US semiconductor
technology.
“5G will be transformative for our country, but only
if we have confidence in the security and resilience
of the infrastructure it is built upon,” said
Oliver Dowden
, UK Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media
and Sport (DCMS).
“Following US sanctions against Huawei and
updated technical advice from our cyber experts,
the government has decided it necessary to ban
Huawei from our 5G networks. No new kit is to be
added from January 2021, and UK 5G networks will
be Huawei free by the end of 2027. This decisive
move provides the industry with the clarity and
certainty it needs to get on with delivering 5G
across the UK,” he said.
The minister, who laid out the details of the UK's
ban on Huawei in the House of Commons, said the
government will now seek to legislate with a new
Telecoms Security Bill to put in place the powers
necessary to implement the “tough new” telecoms
security framework.
“By the time of the next election (2024) we will have
implemented in law an irreversible path for the
complete removal of Huawei equipment from our
5G networks,” said Dowden.
The new law will give the government the national
security powers to impose these new controls on
“high risk vendors” and create extensive security
duties on network operators to drive up standards,
DCMS said.
Technical experts at the NCSC reviewed the
consequences of the US sanctions and concluded
that Huawei will need to do a major reconfiguration
of its supply chain as it will no longer have access
to the technology on which it currently relies and
there are no alternatives which we have sufficient
confidence in.
They found the new restrictions make it impossible
to continue to guarantee the security of Huawei
equipment in the future.
After a ban on the purchase of new Huawei kit for
5G from next year, the aim is to completely remove
the Chinese vendor's influence on 5G networks
across the UK by the end of 2027.
The DCMS said Tuesday's decision takes into
account the UK's specific national circumstances
and how the risks from these sanctions are
manifested in the country.
The existing restrictions on Huawei in sensitive and
critical parts of the network remain in place, it
highlighted.
The DCMS said the US action also affects Huawei
products used in the UK's full fibre broadband
networks. However, the UK has managed Huawei's
presence in the UK's fixed access networks since
2005 and we also need to avoid a situation where
broadband operators are reliant on a single supplier
for their equipment.
As a result, following security advice from experts,
DCMS is advising full fibre operators to transition
away from purchasing new Huawei equipment. A
technical consultation will determine the transition
timetable, but it is expect this period to last no
longer than two years.
The government said its new approach strikes the
right balance by recognising full fibre's established
presence and supporting the connections that the
public relies on, while fully addressing the security
concerns.
It stressed that its new policy in relation to high risk
vendors has not been designed around “one
company, one country or one threat” but as an
“enduring and flexible policy” that will enable the UK
to manage the risks to the network, now and in the
future.
Expressing disappointment over UK's decision to
ban it from 5G networks, Huawei in a statement
issued in Beijing said, "This disappointing decision
is bad news for anyone in the UK with a mobile
phone. It threatens to move Britain into the digital
slow lane, push up bills and deepen the digital
divide."
"Instead of 'levelling up', the government is levelling
down and we urge them to reconsider. We remain
confident that the new US restrictions would not
have affected the resilience or security of the
products we supply to the UK," it said.
The company said its future in the UK has become
"politicised".
"This is about US trade policy and not security.
Over the past 20 years, Huawei has focused on
building a better-connected UK. As a responsible
business, we will continue to support our customers
as we have always done," the statement said.
"We will conduct a detailed review of what today's
announcement means for our business here and
will work with the UK government to explain how we
can continue to contribute to a better-connected
Britain," it said.
According to analysts in Beijing, the UK's decision
came as a shock for Huawei, which was hoping that
Britain would not be influenced by the US global
campaign to ban it.
But the Chinese government's decision to go ahead
with the implementation of its controversial national
security law in the former British colony
Hong Kong
fuelled resentment against Beijing in the UK and
prompted Prime Minister Boris Johnson to opt
against Huawei, they opined.

China has a very expansive ideology and they believe they are a superior race. In Nigeria, China has probably bought your village from the government. The news won't tell you this, you won't hear about china towns, or the occupancy of your significant places, you won't see it in the budget, it won't show you if China has forced a loan down Nigeria's throat, and used the whole of Nigeria as collateral, or that we pay rent to China, for our president to live in Aso Rock as tenant. Soon, Chinese language will become our official language. learn it, for soon China businesses will be the only employer of labor, they will eliminate local competition... they have more resources than you, and you or your son will work for an illiterate Chinese man. It has started. 2 Likes |

This war has began Increasing aggression of China cannot be ignored. China is turning its back on international law. It seems only a matter of time before China uses its Armed Forces in a calculated act of aggression to further its policy of expansion. It is acting in violation of UNs Law of the Sea. It has ignored and rejected the ruling of the International Court of Arbitration in the Hague, that China has no claim on Filipino waters and atolls. It killed Indian soldiers in a premeditated act. The seriousness of the situation should not be ignored. The situation is very similar to the Sudetenland and Appeasement. Soon the West will be faced with the same decision on what to do. Before AFRICA wakes us. we will be China's extended territory. 80 percent of everything used in Nigeria from abroad is from China. They have a plan 3 Likes |

Built2last: the US has been doing the same and worse all over the globe, yet i dont see the UK banning US products, do they? let us all stop being hypocrites. btw the UK didnt ban Huawei... they just limited to 35% its access to their 5G network construction: Prime Minister Johnson admitted the firm was a "high risk vendor" but allowed have some access to the UK's 5G network after being told by the UK's security agencies that they could manage the risk posed by Huawei. there are Chinatowns ALL OVER THE WORLD, not just Africa, but if in doubt, go check NY, LA, SF, Paris, Sydney... and if you think Chinese are only buying Africa, then you dont know much about the world. Chinese are EVERYWHERE, whether we like it or no. and there is not much anyone can do about it. 4 Likes 1 Share |
