Germany Excludes Huawei from 6G Networks Amid Security Concerns
Germany has taken a definitive stance against Chinese technology in its future 6G networks, with Chancellor Merz declaring that no components from China will be permitted. The MOVE underscores growing European skepticism toward Chinese tech firms, particularly Huawei, over fears of espionage and national security risks.
Merz emphasized the need for digital sovereignty, signaling discussions with France and industry leaders to reduce reliance on foreign tech giants, including those from the U.S. Major telecom operators like Deutsche Telekom and Vodafone now face the challenge of sourcing alternatives, likely favoring European suppliers.
