HELSINKI -- Chinese telecom company Huawei on Tuesday criticized the Estonian government and media for spreading what it says are "arbitrary and unfounded" allegations about cybersecurity risks related to the company's mobile phones.

He referred to an Estonian television program aired in September that discussed the issue in detail. In it, Foreign Trade and Technology Minister Kert Kingo spoke about alleged security risks with Huawei phones. "For Huawei, the security and privacy of our customers is of primary importance," said Hong Yang. "We do not collect or share personal information with third parties without the user's consent."

Estonian media reported in September that the small country, which is among Europe's most wired and technologically advanced nations, is set to restrict the use of equipment and technology from Huawei in its government sector.
