US threatens to block China Telecom from American market

WASHINGTON: The United States threatened Thursday to cut off Beijing-controlled China Telecom from serving the US market because of legal and security risks, the Justice Department announced Thursday.

The recommendation has to be decided upon by the FCC, but will almost certainly involve the White House, where it could be weighed amid ongoing trade negotiations with Beijing.

The statement Thursday did not explain specifically what China Telecom had done to spark the recommendation that it be ousted from US telecommunications services. US national security officials have displayed increasing wariness of Chinese telecommunications firms and technology.
