Urgent need for EU countries to diversify 5G suppliers, Commission says
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - EU countries must take urgent action to diversify their 5G suppliers, the European Commission said on Friday, amid U.S. pressure on the bloc to follow Britain and ban China’s Huawei [HWT.UL] from 5G networks.
In November last year, the EU agreed to take a tough line on 5G suppliers to reduce cybersecurity risks to next-generation mobile networks, seen as key to boosting economic growth and competitiveness.
