Germany launches 5G auction amid row with US over Huawei via SABCNewsOnline

The United States has threatened to end intelligence sharing with Berlin if it does not exclude hardware made by Huawei from the infrastructure, arguing that Chinese equipment could help Beijing spy on Western companies and governments.

Germany, Europe’s biggest economy whose wireless networks rank 46th in the world for download speeds, wants to close the sizeable digital gap by making the shift to the ultra-fast 5G system. Chinese firm Huawei is not one of the bidders but provides the four German companies with essential hardware — such as antennas and routers.

In a letter, Grenell told Peter Altmaier, Germany’s economy minister, that intelligence-sharing cooperation could cease if Berlin allows the Chinese firm to be part of the 5G network. Merkel has tried to reassure senior figures in Washington by saying Germany would consult with the US over whether to use Huawei tech, but would “define our standards for ourselves”.BND security experts have asked the government to take China’s overall strategy into account, including a law on forced cooperation in security matters, according to a report in Der Spiegel magazine.
