No Way Huawei on 5G

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

To its great credit, the Trump administration has recognized the grave threat posed to the national security of the United States – and, for that matter, most of the world’s other nations – by the fifth-generation wireless networks on offer from the Chinese Communist Party doing business as Huawei.

In recent years, the American government has relentlessly warned its allies – and anybody else who would listen – not to get hooked up to Huawei’s 5G communications systems on the grounds that they will enable Beijing to engage in ominous data-theft and -manipulation.  

The Chinese Communists have responded by thuggishly threatening nations that heed our warnings. So, Washington must: a) push back hard against such behavior; b) desist from supplying technology or know-how that will offset much-needed sanctions on Huawei; and c) supply as soon as possible American alternatives that will provide reliable, affordable and secure communications networks.
